Optional model relations

I’m currently working on an application and have a bit of a problem with
relations.

The models Im working on right now are: User and Document

User has many documents
Documents always belong to one user

The thing is, there’s a point where the user may have no documents at
all, because he hasn’t created one yet.

Is ‘has many’ adequate for this relationship?
