"Attending births is like growing roses. You have to marvel at the ones that just open up and bloom at the first kiss of the sun but you wouldn't dream of pulling open the petals of the tightly closed buds and forcing them to blossom to your time line." -Gloria Lemay

Michelle, this is so funny because just today I was talking to the owner of Lilly's Montesorri School and she had mentioned that she had a doula for the recent birth of her son. What a conincidence! I was googling your name, and I realized that I knew who you were. What a small world. I emailed you with my no. because I really need your help! THANKS!!!
Child Abuse is everyone's problem!!!! Each of us must come to care about everyone else's children. We must recognize that the welfare of our children is intimately linked to the welfare of all other people's children. After all, when one of our children needs life-saving surgery, someone else's child will perform it. If one of our children is harmed by violence, someone else's child will be responsible for the violent act. The good life for our own children can be secured only if a good life is also secured for all other people's children." –Lilian Katz *PLEASE MAKE THE CHOICE TO BE A VOICE! WWW. NATURALCHILD. ORG
