Quartet composed to celebrate the birth of the composer's first child, Luna. Each movement expresses a sentiment expressed by the composer in relation to the new life.

- II - Learning: "Life has a stumbling begining that grows in complexity as we learn."
- III - Energy & Inocence: "New life comes with inocent energy."
- IV - Paternal Preocupation: "The parent has now a permanent worry as the new life faces challenges."
