Born

Folder: 
Family & Memories

Moving

downward

with nature's

propelling force.



Squeezing through

the passage

in birth's

direction.



Contracting walls

guiding

the route

which

all humans

must journey.



Emerging

suddenly

from

womb

to

world.



Pressed

into

the

waiting arms

of love.



Bathed

for the

first time

in

Mother

and Father's

tears.



Swaddled

for the

first time

in the

blanket

of joy.



Welcome

to the

world,

Little One.
