Life is a journey that begins at birth, and to begin that journey at home, helps promote a home into becoming a safe, sacred space for nourishing our children. With three of my own children, I am able to say to them, "Look, that is the bed that you were born on...(except for one daughter who came to the bed from the waterbirth tub). |

There is a sense of history and rightness with the world, as a couple works hard, and begins the journey of parenthood together by working through birth together, and then altogether, they get to meet and cuddle in the family bed afterwards. What an absolutely joyous occasion! |

"Being Born Is Important" |

Being born is important
You who have stood at the bed posts
and seen a mother on her high harvest day,
the day of the most golden of harvest moons for her. |

You who have seen the new wet child
Dried behind the ears,
swaddled in soft fresh garments,
pursing its lips and sending a groping mouth
toward nipples where the white milk is ready. |

You who have seen this love's payday
of wild toiling and sweet agonizing. |

You know being born is important.
You know that nothing else was ever so important to you.
You understand that the payday of love is so old,
So involved, so traced with the circles of the moon,
So cunning with the secrets of the salts of the blood,
It must be older than the moon, older than the salt. |
