The arrival of a baby is such a special time, but it is also a time of huge upheaval for all the family, Mum, Dad, and older siblings. This is a prayer for all those most affected by the arrival of a new baby...
May the Spirit of all things new bless you
(Mum's name and Dad's name)
(Older brothers and sisters' names)
As you welcome baby Name to your home and your hearts
May you delight in the joy he brings, and support each other in the minding he will need
May you be gentle with yourselves, each other and most especially <baby> as you adjust to the his arrival
And make room for him in your hearts and your home
May you know and lean on, as needed,
The support that here for you from your wider family and friends
May you come to see the Divine in him, and be open to how she will see the Divine in each of you
Amen
