First of all, congratulations! It is magical. We have two, the oldest now 10. It goes fast, enjoy every minute. And start now, indeed. Whisper to that tiny human growing in that womb. Sing to it. Start creating that bond already. And...
You will remember those words, as they are as accurate as can be (but you will not always like what you see in that mirror, I guess that's one part of the raising done by the small one):
"As you grow you raise us too,
The mirror that reflects all that’s pure and true."

ENJOY.
Congratulations!! Fatherhood is such a trip.
If even a drop of the beauty you rendered in your poem trickles over to your parenting skills, your new human will be in good hands.
Congrats!
