My children, my daughter and son, both came into this realm 22 and 19 years ago (respectively) with Gloria Lemay's gentle touch coaxing us along. Watching this video...the nine beautiful births, I was overwhelmed with such joy and such emotion that I truly sobbed through just about each and every one. What touched me most, to my core, was how we as Women are so beautiful when we care for, encourage, support and nurture one another in these moments. So much wisdom shared!! So powerful and engaging!! Of course the appearance of baby is the icing on the proverbial cake...how we forget everything else once that baby is in our arms...where they should be of course!! This video placed me right in that moment once again, with all the love and joy and sense of well being I experienced all those years ago. As I journey through to menopause...which will be soon (my body is speaking to me once again in not so subtle ways) I am in awe and celebration of all things "Woman"...of how we are so perfectly created to make this journey...and I am so grateful to have shared my birth experience with such amazing and loving caregivers...and of course all mothers,human, fur, fish or fowl, that preceded me. Maiden, Mother and almost Crone... I am truly blessed...
I'm so glad you liked it, Wendy. Memories of your pregnancies and births are still so clear for me even though the years have passed. You did something brave for your children. It's a gift you can be proud of. Love Gloria
