There’s a certain kind of joy that doesn’t come from anything grand or planned. It’s the kind that sneaks up on you, like a soft breeze on a warm afternoon. That’s how it felt when I found out I was going to be a father.
I wasn’t expecting it. Life had been moving at a steady pace—work, routines, small pleasures. But then, one morning, everything changed. The test was positive, and suddenly, the world seemed brighter, more vivid. I couldn’t stop smiling. I felt like I was floating, as if I had just stepped into a dream.
"Over the moon" is more than just an expression—it’s a feeling. It’s when your heart feels too big for your chest, when every moment is filled with wonder and possibility. It’s when you look at the person you love and realize that life has given you something even better than you ever imagined.
Being a parent isn’t easy. There are sleepless nights, endless questions, and moments of doubt. But in those quiet, early hours, when the world is still and the only sound is the soft breathing of your child, you feel something deep and true. You understand that this is what it means to love unconditionally.
Sometimes, we get caught up in the hustle of daily life. We chase goals, meet deadlines, and forget to stop and appreciate the little things. But being over the moon reminds us to slow down, to breathe, and to cherish the moments that matter most.
So here’s to the unexpected joys, the quiet miracles, and the people who make life worth living. May we all find our own "over the moon" moments—and hold on to them tightly.
