My daughter Emily, who is almost 14, is doing an eighth grade challenge project on mothering. She has received many lovely responses from people, many from Lactnet. She is now in the process of putting them on the web for all to read. Several are up now, and if you'd like to take a minute and reflect on why we all work in this field, why mothering is so important, please feel free to stop by and look at her work and the words of those who have written about mothering from the heart. URLs in my sig file, and Emily is accepting more stories from anyone who wishes to write about their experience as a mother, a daughter, or both. Blessings. Kathleen, who cannot possibly have such a mature daughter? Surely she was just 3? : ) Kathleen B. Bruce, BSN, IBCLC co-owner Lactnet,TLC, Indep.
