Rebeka Fergusson-Lutz

Rebeka Fergusson-Lutz is a full-time professional high school English teacher and part-time semi-professional creative person. Her primary breadwinning comes from teaching English language and literature at the high school and college levels: over the past 17 years she has taught in Romania; Washington, D.C.; Qatar; Oman; Honduras; and China. When she is not writing lesson plans and grading papers, however, she works as a freelance writer, editor, and researcher. When she's not chained to her laptop with those side-hustles, she experiments with drawing, painting, sewing, printmaking, collage, and various combinations thereof.

The Miracle of Childbirth

When I was ten years old, I experienced the miracle of childbirth. I was there when my sister was born – not in our living room at home, or in the back of the taxi, but in the hospital room with my parents and the labor coach and the obstetrician. As you might imagine, this experience has proven to be a pivotal one in my development as a daughter, a sister, and most importantly, a woman.
