Bamboo is a
vigorous and versatile plant that symbolizes grace, endurance and
compromise as it bends but does not easily break. Bamboo
survives in the harshest conditions and endures nature's challenges
with resilience and flexibility. Standing tall and green year-round
a bamboo forest sways in the wind reminding us of the strength,
yielding and adaptability necessary during the powerful process of
birth.
"I think fondly
of my birth every single day. I know everyone says the day your
child is born is the best day of your life and it's true, but her
birth was the best event of my life. It has really
changed me and how I see myself. Thank you for your
part in that." Elisa, Cedar Rapids, IA
