I was reading with a quiet smile the stories of sons and daughters
questioning the breastfeeding intent of future spouses.  Along the same
vein, my 13 year old son came home from school yesterday (the LAST day!)
with straight A's all year.  I nonchalantly asked "You know why you got
straight A's don't you?" thinking he would say it was because he worked
really hard at it.  He threw up his arms and proclaimed "I know.......it's
because I was breastfed!".  This is the same son who,at 3 years of age,
asked why a friend was feeding her baby the "wrong way" when he saw her
bottle feeding.  Little did he know she was battling a very painful yeast
infection and was using pumped breastmilk.  Our children are definitly
preaching what we practice!!  We ARE making a difference.
