I just got home from The Gathering a couple of hours ago.

The Gathering is where Texas licensed/CPM midwives and nurse midwives get together to share information and support for each other.  Many conferences do a lot to strengthen your knowledge.  The Gathering strengthens your soul.

I had a wonderful time and finally have some faces to go with the names of CNMs that I have heard or seen over the years:  Sister Angela (truly a legend in her own time), Mary Barnett, and Dinah Waranch, to name a few.  There was much laughter, a few tears, and lots of valuable information shared between all of us.

I can’t wait until next year!
