![Chronicles of a Doula](http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-8_Gsa6_v9Ew/XbczoStPCNI/AAAAAAAAHo0/_vGqBqmk1a0jZfZhHbMDzwJPkdh0ZOFogCK4BGAYYCw/s1600/hands.jpg)
I have birthed two babies and witnessed them give birth to their own babies. Now I want to support birthing folk realize their power, beauty and capacity to bring their children into the world. This space is where I chronicle my experiences, lessons and reflections on this thing we call birth work. I hope you join me.

What are you reading?
Getting my doula groove on. Got these on inter-loan from my library. Waiting for my required book to come in that is being sent to me from a sister doula student. Sigh, I want to continue with my lessons, but my book review is due first. Breathe. I am doing the work. I am doing the work. I am doing the work and so it is.
