I still can’t fully wrap my head around what happened the other day. I went to the hospital to see my best friend give birth. It was the first time a friend of mine has had a baby, and honestly, I wasn’t prepared for how overwhelming it would feel.
I’ve known her since 2013. That’s more than a decade of friendship, and in that time I’ve seen her through so many chapters: every season, every struggle, every joy. We’ve shared secrets, laughter, heartbreaks, and milestones, but nothing compared to witnessing this one. Walking into that hospital room, knowing she was about to step into motherhood, was surreal.
When I finally saw her holding her baby, I couldn’t stop smiling. My heart swelled with so much pride, love, and gratitude. It was an honor to be there with her in such a profound, beautiful moment. The air in the room felt different, like life had shifted, like a new beginning was unfolding before our eyes.
I left the hospital today feeling changed. My best friend is now a mother, and I’m a godmother. Our bond, which has already carried us through so much since 2013, just grew into something even bigger. I’m so grateful to have been present for her “good moment”, one that I know will forever be etched in both of our hearts.
Life just got a little more magical.
