D is for daughters. I always wanted to have daughters of my own and I have been blessed with two beautiful, spunky, amazing daughters. They light up my life and make me want to be a better woman.
D is for doula. I've been a doula for 6 years! It all started when my friend C got pregnant. She asked me to be her labour coach since she was alone. Her mom teased me sometimes that I should be a doula because she had a friend who had been a doula. Then, when C went into labour, her nurses told me that I was really good at labour support and that I should look into becoming a doula. The last straw was while watching the Breakfast Show on TV. They had the local doula group on talking about doulas and I decided that it had knocked three times so I *had* to check it out. I called the TV station and got the contact info for the women doing the interview and the rest, as they say, is history :)
D is for daisies, my favourite flower! Gerbera daisies are my absolute fave, but any daisy will do, really. I love the simplicity of the plain old white petal'd, yellow centred daisies. I especially love that they grow all up and down the alley behind my house...beauty amongst the garbage bins.

My favorite flowers are daises too, funny how many things we have in common.
I swear girl, we need to meet!!!! Daughters, Doula-ing, and Daisies are all part of my heart too! Ya know it's funny because I thought your alphabet thing was such a good idea and I wanted to do it too, but ours would be SO identical, it's pointless! LOL
