Mira finally stood as she spoke gently, addressing the guest.
"First, I want to thank all of you for being here today. It means the world to me to share this special moment with each of you, especially while Zamian is away. This celebration has been a beautiful reminder of the love and support I have around me, and I feel so blessed to be surrounded by such wonderful friends and colleagues."
She paused, her eyes scanning the room, filled with warmth from the smiles of those who came to support her. Her voice softened as she spoke of the personal journey she was embarking on.
"Becoming a mother is something I've always dreamed of, but I never imagined how much love I could already feel for someone I haven't even met yet." She rested her hand on her growing belly. "Every kick, every little movement—it fills my heart with so much joy and anticipation for the day I finally get to hold my baby in my arms."
