With pregnancy comes the unknown.
Boy or girl, healthy or not.
Will I meet the expectations of parenthood?
Will I meet the expectations of my child?
For nine months, hope and anxiety couple
In a dance of expectation,
Without ground for answers.
The unknown crushes the known.
The next generation travels the same path,
Even if never traveled.
Always new, never certain,
The past sinks before the future.
Now with age and little personal expectation,
Sharing the joy that your children
Surpassed any expectation.
The unexpected overwhelms the moment.
