She loves to read, mostly non-fiction, to expand her knowledge and she writes occasionally as well. She also loves to spend time with family and friends. Shannon has had a variety of beautiful birth experiences including a premature, medicated delivery, a natural childbirth in the hospital, and a beautiful water birth at home. She has learned so much through these birth experiences and with being a part of BirthNetwork and looks forward to helping women find the best options for them.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-483948821658064953.post-14979409300136313712009-02-04T19:46:00.004-07:002010-02-25T16:46:59.754-07:00Jennifer Owen<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/_MCKvQfFKTH4/SYpXcSxoyeI/AAAAAAAAAAw/hJqNBTuWTNI/s1600-h/Jennifer.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer; width: 161px; height: 200px;" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/_MCKvQfFKTH4/SYpXcSxoyeI/AAAAAAAAAAw/hJqNBTuWTNI/s200/Jennifer.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5299144055142795746" border="0" /></a><br />Jennifer Owen is a homeschooling mom of four girls. She plays the cello in the local symphony and has many cello students. She loves to sew and quilt. She is a childbirth advocate and her birthing experiences have led her to the wonderful, mother-friendly care of certified nurse midwives. She milks goats with a friend in the mornings....whereas other people have running buddies. Other than drinking goats milk, she also uses it to make soap. Out of everything she does, she considers homeschooling the most fun and rewarding. She has awesome kids that love to learn.<br /><br />Jennifer has some mad skills when it comes to pamphlets, programs, and fliers and is a true blessing to our group.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-483948821658064953.post-81936739950355452572009-02-04T19:39:00.004-07:002010-02-25T16:47:24.720-07:00Valerie Hall<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/_MCKvQfFKTH4/SYpSUL_E_iI/AAAAAAAAAAo/ZccKf5ee3G0/s1600-h/Valerie.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 161px; height: 200px;" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/_MCKvQfFKTH4/SYpSUL_E_iI/AAAAAAAAAAo/ZccKf5ee3G0/s200/Valerie.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5299138418323029538" border="0" /></a><br />Valerie Hall is the mother of six children, born in hospitals without medication.
