So thank you for that.<BR/><BR/>Also, I love what you said about your body, and I think that's totally right. I'm glad you're able to have some positive feelings about all those changes.Jesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15942269316108576622noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30354864.post-79552922108629326422008-01-05T18:39:00.000-08:002008-01-05T18:39:00.000-08:00I love the description of the Kindermusik class! ...I love the description of the Kindermusik class!

It will make you go "wow, I'm not the only one". I like that you've reached a good place with it though.<BR/><BR/>I'm glad to hear your "review" of Kindermusic. I've thought it would probably be a complete waste of time and money for us, now I know it would be.<BR/><BR/>I'm glad that you found a good place to donate too. And volunteering for a school would be awesome. It would be great if you knew a teacher in the district and just asked them if they needed anything done. You could come in once a week and put up a bulletin board or something like that. I know a lot of teachers love mothers and other people who can help with the little, time-consuming things. Or maybe come in for a reading/story time to help or work one on one with some students. Oh, just thought of something. HOSTS is a great programs, and I know they take volunteers to work one on one with kids. I don't know if the city schools does it, but my school district does (E....). (HOSTS = Helping One Student To Succeed) I've helped with that before, and it's awesome. Anyway, I hope those ideas help.Mommy Daisyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02272248293460562006noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30354864.post-68504469487700940882008-01-05T12:41:00.000-08:002008-01-05T12:41:00.000-08:00I am so with you on #5.

And now that I'm starting to pop out with baby #3, I'm already dreading what else could possibly get scarred, stretched out or droop any lower toward my knees.

I must fan myself.<BR/><BR/>anyway, at one point she's all upset about how she looks and he has this horrible bayonet scar from some battle and he gives this little speech about "how ye bear the scars from your own battles as well, and how can I fault ye for it" and when it's done by a hot guy with a Scottish accent I want to believe it, even when he's not actually talking to ME. Since it's a book.<BR/><BR/>But still.

I think we get SO MUCH VISUAL PRESSURE that "women look like THIS" (insert photo of celebrity/model female) and then we hear that Britney Spears is "fat," and what are we supposed to think of our own normal bodies? I like those sites where women send in photos of their stomachs. It's such a surprise to see so many like mine, and so few like Cameron Diaz's.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30354864.post-64660145817489851312008-01-05T10:47:00.000-08:002008-01-05T10:47:00.000-08:00I actually thought that was really nice. :)I actually thought that was really nice. :)d e v a nhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02514260896810474173noreply@blogger.com
