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
