Our baby boy decided to land on the earth under the star of his choice, Wednesday September 5th at 3:07am, at home on Bowen Island. 8.1 pounds, and not a day overdue at 43 weeks.
Onyx Ganada (Raven) Davidson, Your pregnancy and birth has given me the vitality, strength, power, wholeness, and spiritual awe I’ve striven to achieve my whole life. You are the Raven who brought me light. The adoration you show me in the depths of your eyes feels like the deepest display of gratitude for listening to your wisdom when no one else would.
“Hold me now Because I’m tired here Coming down slowly From the life that I lived Into your arms Side by side again So many lifetimes So many changes in the wind We go on and on From our forefathers Sharing their stories Sharing their traits as we tread
And it’s you I see When I close my eyes Coming down slowly Wings open wide My angel love The one I’ve waited for Whispering softly To the depths of my soul, this is love”
Xavier Rudd, True love
I thought I might contribute a MASSIVE shout out to the woman who helped me bring both of my babes into the world, Jessica. Her support, knowledge, power, presence, and beyond were all the reasons why I very safely and beautifully birthed both of my babes at home on Bowen island. The first born at 42 weeks and the second at 43 weeks.
She helped me stay focused on my intuition, the communication from my body along with the hard facts from science and believed in me that everything I was choosing to do was actually the safest route for my births. I love you Jess. I wish all babies could have your magic presence upon their first breaths.
