This reflection touches something primal and tender: the truth that connection begins before we ever speak, before we even know who we are. It reminds us that the most meaningful bonds aren’t forged through effort or explanation, but through presence and quiet, shared becoming. That first pulse, that silent tether in the womb, stays with us. It’s the blueprint for trust, not built on words, but on the feeling of being held. And even across oceans, that kind of thread never forgets where home is.

I love how this holds the mystery of becoming with such reverence. Connection really does begin before we can even name it. Before thought, there is rhythm. Before language, there is love.

Celest, so amazing! But is it ok if my perspective comes from the love of a father?

Yes, without a doubt—love for a child transcends all boundaries, whether it’s gender or the role one holds in their life. A father's love can be just as deep, tender, and unconditional as a mother’s.

As a mum, my words often flow from the heart of a mother, shaped by the moments I share with my little one.

I'm working on something close to my heart—something about my little sunshine and the beautiful bond he shares with his daddy. I can't wait to share it.

Oh, you have no idea how your words have resonated. I have 5 children, I have no idea where they are or how they are. Thank you for igniting something that I cannot name at this moment, but something that is so strong! Bless you! More to follow!

My articles was written with love, and without gender bias—because the love we feel for our children is universal, beyond roles or labels.

I’m truly grateful when my words resonate with someone who’s been searching for a way to express the deep, indescribable love they hold for their child or the little ones in their life.
