Gratitude: A Story of a Computer, Vomit and What It Means To Be A Parent

I linked to this from Facebook and posted it to Redit but thought I'd put it here for posterity as well since it's so good.  (And if I'm serious about a “Sentimental Sunday” recurring post feature, this fits right in!) Gratitude. (via Cathie From Canada)

Shea posted a hilarious anti-breastfeeding article pro-Nestle Fake Milk Formula to her Facebook status with the usual heavy response to anytime this type of topic comes up – from both pro-breastfeeding moms and those who weren't able to or aren't as worked up about the prevalance of formula in our society.  It made me think, […]
