Now eight weeks into parenthood, Alanis Morissette is finding the “new normal” of motherhood to be a “revelation.”

“I am filled with gratitude and inspiration,” the singer, 36, writes in a post on her Facebook page.

“I am so grateful for all the kind congratulations you have sent to me and Souleye. We are deeply touched by your kindnesses.”

Morissette, who welcomed her son on Christmas Day, continues, “Ever has cracked open a door in my heart that I had been dusting off for years in anticipation of this kind of opportunity to love.”

Her first trimester is over — and so far, so good for Alyssa Milano.
