seminar

I just got back from an awesome seminar. It was called "Girls Behaving Badly" and was presented by Rachel Simmons, the author of Odd Girl Out. It was amazing. She's a very good speaker, funny, off-the-cuff and totally on target. I learned a lot about girl aggression and how to try to counteract it and to, hopefully, deflect the cycle by giving my girls some language to deal with it. There's so much material that it's hard to put it all into words.

She's got another book out, "Odd Girl Speaks Out" and there is a movie on the Lifetime channel on Monday.

I liked the book, I'm so glad I got to hear her, I plan to read the second book and watch the movie - with my girls.

Hey this blog is not about child weight loss. Silly internet bringing me here :-) Funny I have been doing hours of research on child weight loss and it brought me to your blog on this post. The web plays funny games sometimes. Anyways, I was reading your blog mira and I think it is really cool. Keep up the great work.
If you do not mind I will snag your blog and put it in my favorites. I read a ton of stuff on here that interested me. Keep blogging away :-)
