Tommy – puts on the nearest shoes and declares himself ready to go. Sarah – spends an hour picking out clothes and playing with hair and still needs more time. Tommy – heads straight to the video game store. Sarah – wanders the entire mall looking for friends before entering a single store. Tommy – […]
Pathways magazine has published a picture of me breastfeeding Evan at STAR. The picture is being used with an article that encourages nursing in public. I feel like my breasts have now had their 15 minutes of fame.
