I want to thank everyone who gave me helpful suggestions regarding my  
daughter's difficulty in being told she could not bring her nursing baby to her  
older son's school function.  In the end she did not send a letter as it  
became unnecessary as she was given the ok to bring her baby. Below is a  
synopsis of what occurred.  

It was strange.  She had communicated with the teacher via a  message book 
sent home with kids every day that she could not possibly leave her  baby 
and that her 6 yr old son would be devastated if she didn't come  and the 
teacher told her finally that it was ok to bring her baby.  Sooo,  the day of 
the presentation/picnic, last Wed, I go with her, her husband, the  baby and 
there are other siblings everywhere!  A couple of other babies,  toddlers and 
a handful of preschool children.  Nothing ever said, teachers  being nice 
about meeting the little brother....No one said a word about it  and my 
daughter didn't feel like saying anything either.  The  whole thing was 
ridiculous in the first place and she went thru so much  unnecessary grief over it.  
Sheesh!  She may need to use the letter  she wrote in the future for her 
older son's functions, so a special thanks to  Liz Brooks and Melissa Vance for 
their advice regarding this.
