Yippee!

HB 31  passed in the DE House by a roll call vote of 39 - 0!  All
references to baby were changed to child!

The current Nursing Mothers, Inc of DE President spoke very briefly.  I
accompanied her on the House floor.  The only question was from a
representative who wanted to make sure the bill was strong enough!  Our
assembly is in recess for 6 weeks, so it will be a while before it gets
to the Senate and the process begins again.

We brought my 8 week old twins and the NMI President's 2 and 5 year old
children - at the request of the Bill's author.  Kendall and Carlie took
turns nursing all over Legislative Hall as an aide gave us a tour!  DE
truly is a "small wonder" (state motto).  Representatives flocked to our
children and us before and after the vote to thank us for coming and coo
over the kids.

stay tuned for more developments in March...Kym
