(Many women don&#8217;t make it past 6 months!)  I don&#8217;t think I&#8217;m better than you.  I don&#8217;t think it&#8217;s the right choice for everyone.  And I definitely don&#8217;t believe it is necessary.  [...]]]></description>

Today I&#8217;ve been thinking about all of my (perceived) shortcomings.  Yuck.  Let&#8217;s just say that of all the things I am lazy about, the one aspect of my life I regret most is my parenting.  That&#8217;s not to say I think I am a [...]]]></description>
