I'm Amy. I'm crunchy on the outside and gooey on the inside. That's my way of saying that I'm trying hard to "be the change", but I'm far from perfect. I have an amazing husband, a wonderful "tween" aged girl, a vivacious 5-year-old son, and a cuddly new baby boy.
I'm making my journey through this thing called parenthood one day at a time, with the love, support, and assistance of my wonderful husband. I'm a little more "crunchy" than not these days, and much more so than I was a few years ago. I have been a supporter of breastfeeding as long as I can remember, and I come from a long line of breast-feeders, so becoming the passionate lactivist I am now was not a big leap at all. I began to ponder what babies expect of their care-givers, understanding that they are born with no knowledge of life or society, and slowly realized that I had always been on a "natural/attachment parenting" path. I am conscious of what I put into and onto the bodies of myself and my family, I am conscious of what I am doing to the Earth while I am here, I am conscious of what I am modeling for my children and what I am helping them to realize inside of themselves. I am constantly learning. Thanks for coming on this journey with me. I hope that we can learn something from each other!
