Alicia Keys Pens Note On Parenthood

Now that Alicia Keys has given birth to her first child, the singer is fully embracing motherhood. She took time out yesterday and wrote a message on her website about her baby boy, Egypt.

Every moment is beautiful; delicious even! Every moment I’m learning  and living in a way I never have before. Being present in a way I never have before. Existing in moments I never have before.
Never have I felt so calm, so purposeful in taking the time to truly observe the world around me, to live in it fully and watch it, discuss it, put time toward it. It feels really incredible – so peaceful, so complete and long overdue.
I’m grown, I’m confident, I’m secure, and so blessed to be these things.
I’m most enamored with anatomy at this point. The miracle of the human body. The ability to create all these small amazing machines of veins, capillaries, digestive systems, eyes, ears and noses. I can spend HOURS looking at one little EAR! Have u ever noticed how complex just an ear is? A tiny maze of art. It may sound silly but it’s so true. Or a heartbeat? Everyday we wake up and in some way, take for granted the fact that this beautiful pulsating organ in our body is the reason, and yet now that’s all I can think of…
And breath; invisible as it may be, how necessary!
Ain’t it true that things we really can’t see are of the greatest importance?
I’ve never seen a more beautiful face in my LIFE! The most perfect eyes and beautiful nose, the sweetest lips and skin so soft and kissable!
Never have I felt such disbelief, such awe, humility, godliness, such strength, power and possibility.
I’ve never believed in greatness and the never ending Higher Power more than now!
And I can’t believe he’s mine!
Oooh! I feel a song coming on…

    a MAN HAS A RIGHT TO CHOSE WHO HE WANTS TO BE HIS WIFE. aND DIVORCE IS LEGAL.. Be true to thyself and never mind the onlookers.

    All of this would be beautiful and recieved differently if the reality wasn’t that she is a HOMEWRECKER. People gave Fantasia MAD SHIT for dating a married/seperated man to the point homegirl tried to nix herself, but nobody gave this broad shit! Chick needs to step down from her high horse

  7. Say Ruh says:

    STFU with all that homewrecker shit, you look and sound stupid. A woman expressing love for her child is what the world NEEDS more often. Maybe Alicia is just EDUCATED, she’s not necessarily trying to be deep. Maybe you all should be deep more often, show some damn intelligence you fools.

    Congratulations A. 🙂
