Wisdom, Warmth and wonderment

Each woman brings her own uniqueness to the circle. Each has a gift, a talent that is her trademark. Welcoming in diversity and humility. To walk on your journey as you walk through life will bring you closer to your goal and more joy in your day. You are a midwife who is in creation. A midwife under construction. You are important in your journey. Always be willing to learn and always keep breathing.

Students and their gloves

A baby just isn't a baby without that beautiful organ the placenta. Here are out students getting into it with a placenta. Gloves you know are always important to the work. Here you see the membranes. Placentas are actual the babies. Some people forget that this is something that the baby made and it was life sustaining. They are facinating and no two are alike. Like a snowflake or a raindrop they are as individual and the individual they come with. The cord is this amazing spiral that allows it to stretch. The cord attaches firmly to the placenta like the roots of a very wise and strong tree. Thank yo placenta for doing the work of a whole planet for the creation of a universe.

Look at you girls! Oh how I miss coming to class. I have gained such respect for the placenta since having my homebirths. I love how it resembles the "tree of life."
