How true--sending peer counselors out the door to help every mother they
meet is so like weaning and/or watching a child go into kindergarten (in
tears, usually the mother's) and seeing them come out all excited that
first day crowing about all the fun they had.

I have been to peer counseling graduation ceremonies here and they are so
uplifting.  It is contagious how their excitement and enthusiasm to share
their joy in breastfeeding with others. We need to support all such
teaching centers and their graduates. How lucky you are Mary-Anne to be
part of it. Enjoy every minute.

And--congrats, not only to your graduates, but to you for being such an
important part of that program.
