I spent Saturday night with my beautiful niece. She is perfect. We played and read books (Goodnight Moon!) and she slept and ate and walked (holding on to everything in her field of vision).
Here is what I don't want for her or any other girl.

I kind of think we should all be required to watch that every day.
I agree with Gwen.
And I agree Gwen and Allison.
I don't agree - that made me squirt a few real tears. Such a beautiful gurlie, so horrible images. I can't even claim PMS.
:(
Faith - I watched it but have to go get my earphones to listen to it; even without sound it was pretty deep. I can't believe what's going on with girls and things like body image. I have a precious granddaughter, 11 years old. She's plumpish in a pre-pubescent sort of way, and her mother (NO relation to me) spends a long time very morning helping her with makeup, fussing with hair &c. She's ELEVEN! It is to puke. (I mean to get to her, hopefully before it sticks.)
brilliant...
hey, faith, i'm going to stop being shy and ask if i can read your jeans blog? (we are two peas in a pod)
with love,

Hey Faith
Have you ever watched the Killing us Softly films? This is like a condensed one of those... So fucking sad. It's heartbreaking.
Love to you,Z
