This week’s Gallery Prompt at from the lovely Tara over at Sticky Fingers is Inspirational Women.
There is one more person in my life who also gives me support, encouragement, love and inspiration. She is my older cousin Fiona. She lives in Canada with her five boys, whom she has home schooled and is also a highly experienced doula and a lactation consultant. She helps so many woman feel at ease during their births, also before and after. She is there for support and advice. How she does it all I don’t know. She’s not had the easiest life with her boys, one having to have heart operations and one being autistic, but she has been patient and all have grown into wonderful children. Each one a credit to her. I got to see her earlier this year when our Uncle died and although it wasn’t the best of circumstances it was great to spend some time with her and introduce her to my baby girl. I only wish we lived closer to each other. However, technology these days means she is never far away. Thank you Fiona for being an Inspirational Woman and my family.
And I couldn’t not sneak in this photo of Fiona and my dad at her first wedding. My dad loved her very much as she did him. Next week mark’s the 10th anniversary of his death so it seemed fitting to sneak this photo in there.
