Sheryl Crow and her just-adopted son, Wyatt!




In her first interview and photo shoot as a brand-new mom, the singer coos about spending the past three weeks holed up in her Los Angeles mansion with her just-adopted newborn son, Wyatt. "The day he came home (on April 30), I felt like the whole house had changed. The house felt fuller," Crow tells OK! magazine , on stands Friday. "You just feel like nesting and making sure he's acclimated to the world. It is all so fascinating."

The Missouri native, who went through a closed, out-of-state adoption and had Wyatt within 24 hours of his birth, says her parents and a "wonderful baby nurse" have been in the house to help out.

"My mom would hand him to me and say, 'Here's your mommy.' It was really poignant (and very startling) to hear my mom call me Mommy," Crow says. "It took me a while to get used to it."

Being a mom has already inspired her to partake in the World Food Program,http://www.wfp.org which feeds millions of kids worldwide: I don't think there is any coincidence that I was feeding my baby watching these starving children living in abject poverty. Then the opportunity came up to make a real difference.

In lieu of paying Sheryl for her willingness to share photos of Wyatt, OK! Magazine made a large donation to WFP at Sheryl's request. Sheryl writes on her website,

Well, as you no doubt have seen, Wyatt and I did our first, and probably only, photoshoot for a magazine. I have always made it a practice to keep my private life out of the public light but to be honest, I was being heavily stalked by photographers who wanted to get the 'first shot.' And rather than have someone I don't know sell a shot to a magazine, we accepted OK magazine's offer to make a generous donation to an amazing organization called the World Food Program in Wyatt's name. So....Wyatt is now a humanitarian!

A great find from Facebook
