Witnessing babies experience the world for the first time, holding space for families to meet. Hugging grandmothers and comforting aunts who nervously wait. "Everything is fine" "this is normal"
Being a part of something big.
Being a part of a community, of a team.
Laughing while packing up at the events forever caught on tape, or in delirium at 24 hour diners in the wee hours of the morning, at Cavewomen and what the cat drug in.
Communicating in silent glances exchanged across a birth pool, remembering to breathe and "feel my feet on the floor" during hairy situations.
Hands that are learning what to do
Head that is learning what to remember
Heart that is opening wider each day
Grateful

It's like poetry. All of it and you expressed it so beautifully.
