Happy Thanksgiving!

Thursday November 27, 2008

I can find any excuse to write about breastfeeding, and even if it is seemingly unrelated, I'll find a segue to the topic. This is an email that I received this morning from a very close friend of mine. It's simplicity is beautiful and I figured I'd share it with you. And hey, while we're at it, let's pretend it's from your breastfed child! (I had to get it in!) "Today is a day of thanks. I am thankful for living in a country with many freedoms and especially the freedom to be me. I am thankful to have food and shelter. I am thankful for good health. And above all else I am thankful for [moms] like you. [People] that will love you no matter what, be there during good times and bad, that make you laugh, and just brighten my day! Thanks for being you!"

Thanksgiving
