For some reason, in today’s day and age women are not encouraged to be BFFs: breast friends forever – as a matter of fact, we have a battle of the breasts going on! First and foremost, I’ll pick a side: I love breastfeeding! It was indeed a magical experience that came really naturally to me, …
Late last week, after our morning scripture study, I was discussing “the sickness of popularity” with my daughters.
