his tiny first breath
was profound transformation
for a rusty heart.
eighteen years ago, i gave birth to the first of my three soulcharmers. we lived on south mansfield avenue in los angeles, closer to the corner of olympic and la brea than the corner of wilshire and la brea. God always had our backs while we scrimped, saved and survived.
this little boy stretched my heart and made me big inside.
happy birthday, sage.
i love you.
mom

Giving birth is the most mysterious, magical, impossible to describe, profoundest of experiences. You gave him the gift of life, he gave you the gift of motherhood.
