I will miss her. My Grandmother. She was a pillar in our family and funny as hell to boot. I’m glad Peter got to know her. I’m grieving, it’s slow and quiet, but still it’s there. I still feel awkward in groups and socially clumsy right now. I guess this will pass.
Helen N. Hilley. N is for Nadine. A name she gave herself because she got tired of not having a middle name. I loved that irish lady.
I am Joy, a happily married mother of two waterbirthed babies. I am a doula and a Lamaze Certified Childbirth Educator, who worked as a midwife's assistant at a freestanding birth center in TX. As of 2015, I'm a full-time nursing student who teaches childbirth classes at Park Ridge Health, The Baby Place, in Hendersonville, NC. I love serving laboring moms and I enjoy teaching birth education. I use this blog to write about it all - my life, my children, and my passion of all things childbirth.
The Joy of This
