My Daughter’s Hands


My daughter was born with hands that can fight

Prepared to face the world, she came out punching the air

Showing us all that even though she was small in size, she wasn’t one to be messed with

Conquering milestones, defying medical odds, she reminds us everytime that she’s meant to be here

When she feeds, she holds her own bottle, steadying it to make sure you remember whose food it is

When she’s upset, she uses her tiny pink hands to push away anything you bring to try to pacify her

How can someone be so little, yet so fierce?

Because she’s a force

She came to this world as one

She’s a whirlwind – ready to change everything that stands in her way

She’s a mountain – not moved by things that don’t matter

She’s a blossoming field – fruitful in every season

She’s a fighter – so the world needs to prepare

My daughter was born with hands that can fight

And I, her mum, will give her boxing gloves ❤️
