Bliss Ripple is a catalog of clues— fieldnotes for living into one’s internal bliss. Compiled through the creative works of poet, artist, musician, and mama Maggie A. Bishop, Bliss Ripple explores the idea of resounding joy— how to create it and expand it through living with passionate honesty.
Here you will find poems, songs, and observations written under the influence of inspiration Maggie finds scuttling and searching amidst the varied Missouri landscape with her wonder-son, adventurer Arlo, and her artist-partner and dream confidant Josh (who is also a photographer and music promoter).
The Sacred Instinctual Birth of Our Son
Arlo Wade— Divine Being of Light
Our holy son was born completely naturally from a state of instinctual and divine grace on Thursday, September 24th 2009 at 11:30pm. He weighs 9lbs 4.5oz and is 21 inches long. He is light. All is full of love.

HURRAY! I'm so thrilled for all of you! Just out of curiousity, how many weeks gestation did that make you? Seems like forever ago you wrote your "okay, I'm overdue now" post. Heh heh. Many happy returns of the day, and I can't wait to hear the birth story!
P.S. I had "All is Full of Love" by Bjork on my labor CD and your endline made me think of that. ;)
