Each moment is a gift to savor. The little ones have so much to teach us about being in the now. When I think about my girls as women, I want them to remember the feel that I was present for them. Much love.

Each of us must determine the best course of action for ourselves. I respect each person&#039;s choice and do not judge. In fact, I do support women who chose to birth in a hospital as well. I don&#039;t feel there was any judgement in my words. I do however, feel strongly that one day every healthy woman will birth her baby at home into her own hands.
