Our Enormous Balls

This is the brainchild of a Facebook conversation between myself, the fabulous woman behind Thoughts From A Doula. She had commented about her unique requirements for a rental car: "Happy I could find a last minute sitter and a rental car with backseats big enough to fit my balls and gear!"

A friend replied: "The 12 year old boy that resides inside of me just giggled."

Colleen agreed: "I know! So did the 17 year old boys at the rental place who had to measure the doors to backseat to see if 'my balls' would fit! LOL!"

And I chimed in: "I'm seeing classic bumper sticker potential: 'Doulas Do It With Enormous Balls'."

By the next day, an entire line was set up, thanks to Colleen as well as Kelly Book, Tricia Fitzgerald and Amy Robinson Owen Doula. Check out all the gear! Didn't the designer do a kickass job? I know I need a babydoll T, tote bag and, of course, a sticker, at the very least!

And with that, I'm off for a few days, as I'm finally visiting some friends in Connecticut! Hope everyone out there gets to enjoy some warm spring weather.

  6. I love this!! Too funny. I think you should also start a line of birth balls called "Enormous Balls"...
