It is a highly gu...I am bubbling with happiness :-)<br />It is a highly guarded secret that I still breastfeed my 34 month old toddler. I hide it now, and sometimes downright lie about it because I was persecuted by friends and family. But I very much subscribe to the theory that each mom does what is best for their child. What I choose for mine, including paci, potty training, books, tv, etc will not be the choice of many, and that is what makes us a great and dynamic group of girls. <br /><3 ya Dakota!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
