For those of us who didn't get an instruction manual with our babies and for whom parenting hasn't always gone as planned. On a more serious note this blog is about supporting a woman's ability to make her own choices about parenting including the choice, for whatever reason, to bottle feed her babies formula.

The Finish

Thank you for all your kind wishes and support.

This photo of my training partner and me was taken as we approached the finish line.

Happy Mother's Day.
