When your baby is expecting her baby:

As I’m rubbing her back, hoping to ease the pain (I know so well) holding back my tears (mixed emotions) I wish I had the power to take her pain away, I’m reminded of what a woman must go through to bring a new human being into the world, I’m also reminded of every single time she’s tried to tell me “it’s my life mami” not understanding as of yet, my reasons for feeling and telling her that after God she’s mine and only mine. The flashbacks I’m having vividly of when I felt my first contractions with her (time flies) and soon an extension to my bloodline. I’m nervous for her, but she’ll never know, as I hold her hand advising her to take deep breaths. Only mothers will understand this moment I’m trying to put into words❤️🙏🏼
