A Belated Announcement

August16

Whoops! On Thurs­day night, Jason, the boys, and I were on our way home from a potluck to cel­e­brate World Breast­feed­ing Week. As we were in the car, Jason said, “Did you post any­thing on your blog about World Breast­feed­ing Week?” Um, no, whoops! I did not post any­thing about it. When I thought about it, I real­ized the rea­son I didn’t is because it was such a part of my life and my daily blog read­ing that I assumed every­one would know. Who doesn’t know that World Breast­feed­ing Week is August 1–7? Then I real­ized that until 2 years ago I had not heard of it.

So, I guess I need to con­sider this my chance to spread the word. Maybe next year, I will be able to announce it ear­lier and invite a few of you to a world breast­feed­ing week event!
