In the Light of Your Halo: N+N’s Calgary Home Water Birth


“Everywhere I'm looking now I'm surrounded by your embrace.
Baby, I can see your halo; you know you're my saving grace.
You're everything I need and more; it's written all over your face.
Baby, I can feel your halo. Pray it won't fade away ”

~ Beyoncé
