“A little boy asked his mother, “Why are you crying?” “Because I’m a woman,” she told him.
🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺
“I don’t understand,” he said. His Mom just hugged him and said, “And you never will.”
🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺
Later the little boy asked his father, “Why does mother seem to cry for no reason?”
🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺
“All women cry for no reason,” was his entire dad could say.
🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺
The little boy grew up and became a man, still wondering why women cry…
🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺
Finally, he put in a call to God. When God got on the phone, he asked, “God, why do women cry so easily?”
🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺
God said
“When I made the woman she had to be special.
🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺
I made her shoulders strong enough to carry the weight of the world, yet gentle enough to give comfort.
🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺
I gave her an inner strength to endure childbirth and the rejection that many times comes from her children.
🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺
I gave her a hardness that allows her to keep going when everyone else gives up, and take care of her family through sickness and fatigue without complaining.
🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺
I gave her the sensitivity to love her children under any circumstances, even when her child has hurt her very badly.
🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺
I gave her strength to carry her husband through his faults and fashioned her from his rib to protect his heart.
🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺
Finally, I gave her a tear to shed. This is hers exclusively to use whenever it is needed.”
🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺
“You see my son,” said God, “the beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair.
🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺
The beauty of a woman must be seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart – the place where love resides.”
🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺
Please send this to ten beautiful women you know today. If you do, – You will boost another woman’s self-esteem. I am also waiting
🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺
Pass it on to men too – perhaps they will then understand “why women cry….

Mother’s Day is a celebration honoring the mother of the family, as well as motherhood, maternal bonds, and the influence of mothers in society. It is celebrated on various days in many parts of the world, most commonly in the months of March or May. It complements similar celebrations honoring family members, such as Father’s Day, Siblings Day, and Grandparents Day.
Mother’s Day
Anna Marie Jarvis (May 1, 1864 – November 24, 1948) was the founder of the Mother’s Day holiday in the United States. Her mother had frequently expressed a desire for the establishment of such a holiday, and after her mother’s death, Jarvis led the movement for the commemoration.
Ann Reeves Jarvis was a social activist, founder of Mothers’ Day Work Clubs. As a woman defined by her faith, she was very active within the Andrews Methodist Episcopal Church community. It was during one of her Sunday school lessons in 1876 that her daughter, Anna Jarvis, allegedly found her inspiration for Mother’s Day, as Ann closed her lesson with a prayer, stating:
I hope and pray that someone, sometime, will found a memorial mothers day commemorating her for the matchless service she renders to humanity in every field of life. She is entitled to it.
— Ann Reeves Jarvis
However, as the years passed, Jarvis grew disenchanted with the growing commercialization of the observation (she herself did not profit from the day) and even attempted to have Mother’s Day rescinded. She died in a sanitarium, her medical bills paid by people in the floral and greeting card industries.
I hate all of the commercialization behind the day that celebrates moms; imagine how Anna Jarvis would feel now. The holiday’s founder worked so hard to get the world to give moms everywhere a day of recognition. Before her death, even she had to admit she had some regrets about starting Mother’s Day.
I hate the term “Empowering Women.” Empowering Women has become the term used when you offer a woman a job or an opportunity. In many cases more of a marketing term to place on a website or in blog posts or Facebook rant. What were we doing before this term now overused and without meaning grabbed the spotlight?
Women’s Empowerment Principles:
Empowering women to participate fully in economic life across all sectors is essential to build stronger economies, achieve internationally agreed goals for development and sustainability, and improve the quality of life for women, men, families, and communities.
How does this work if you are attempting to Empowering Women, where do you start?
In Guatemala, I have a great friend, supporter of Boston Newborn Care and our work. In turn, I admire James Dillon’s work in Guatemala, he never uses the term Empowering Women, and Enabling is his preferred means to express his work with Ethical Fashion Guatemala.
Empowering Women
James works mostly Mayan Women Weaving Artisans, in the remote Highlands of Guatemala. The textiles are all handmade dyed from plant seeds, natural cotton, and handspun into works of textile art. The weavers lacked access to technology; he enabled the women to have access to websites, banking, and shipping.
Resulting in economic improvement, products sold internationally and sustainability for the weavers and other forms of Artisan works. Prior local Tourists were the customers, often bartering for a $20 scarf that took a week to weaver.
Empowering Women
James stresses the fact that Ethical Fashion Guatemala is a business, not a None Profit seeking donations or a project. Artisans need work and sales, not donations.
Two years ago, James life in Guatemala changed, Fashionista wrote an article about how from Guatemala James forced ETSY, the on-line handcraft portal to remove thousands of Copyright works of Artisans from their website. The story went Viral.
Think about James story next time you see a sign or website about Empowering Women. I am today thinking how can I Enable more women??

Newborn development babies. During their time in the womb, babies hear, feel, and even smell their mothers, so it’s not hard to believe that they’re attached right from birth. But as any adoptive parent will tell you, biology is only part of the love story. Young babies bond emotionally with people who give them regular care and affection.
A pregnant woman’s thoughts are the precursor for her emotions. … Hundreds of studies have confirmed that chemicals released by the pregnant mother’s body are transported into the womb and affect the unborn baby.” Negative thoughts are often the root cause of a fear-based stress response.
Your baby will recognize your scent within days of birth. Researchers have found that 3-day-old infants are able to discriminate their mom’s milk from someone else’s by its smell. And not only does your baby know your scent, he loves it too. … You’re my mommy!'”
Newborn development babies Week 1: Blurry View. In her first week, Baby can only see objects about 8-12 inches in front of her face. This is about the distance from her face to yours while feeding. Babies generally hold their gaze for only a few seconds.
A 1-week-old, a baby will spend most of the day sleeping. In fact, during the first week of life, a typical newborn baby will sleep for 16-18 hours every 24 hours. … Until then, your days and nights might feel a little mixed up during this first week.
Between birth and three months, your baby may start to: Smile. Early on, it will be just to herself. But within three months, she’ll be smiling in response to your smiles and trying to get you to smile back at her.
Newborn development babies first 3 months of life are by far the hardest for any parent. … The first milestone comes at six weeks, when baby smiles properly for the first time. But it is the three-month mark most new parents wait for anxiously – especially if they have a colicky, difficult baby.
So here are our tops tips for moms with newborn babies, from the mouth of real moms!
Boston Newborn Care for Parents, offers a 3-hour course for new parents. Newborn Care Course for Parents is offered in Community College Throughout New England. The class is limited to 5 couples. New England Newborn Care has chosen a comfortable space for new parents to spend the 3 hours environment for parents to be.
Newborns and Measles
https://www.vox.com/2019/1/27/18199514/measles-outbreak-2018-clark-county-washington
Measles is wildly contagious and during an outbreak, it can spread, especially to older infants who aren’t vaccinated yet. … Over 95% of babies who get the shot at 12 months of age are protected against measles and over 99% are protected for a lifetime after the 2nd dose (given at least 1 month later).
Measles is an airborne disease which spreads easily through the coughs and sneezes of infected people. It may also be spread through contact with saliva or nasal secretions. Nine out of ten people who are not immune and share living space with an infected person will be infected . People are infectious to others from four days before to four days after the start of the rash. Most people do not get the disease more than once. Testing for the measles virus in suspected cases is important for public health efforts
Infants, of course, are not supposed to get the MMR vaccine until they’re at least 12 months old, so they’re at a higher risk of contracting the disease. Here is how you can best protect your baby from measles.
A child should receive the first shot when he or she is between 12–15 months, and the second when he’s between 4–6 years of age. If you’re not sure if you have had the diseases or the vaccines (prior to 1971 it was given in three separate shots), you can get the MMR vaccine as an adult
Measles can be dangerous, especially for babies and young children. From 2001-2013, 28% of children younger than 5 years old who had measles had to be treated in the hospital. For some children, measles can lead to: Pneumonia (a serious lung infection).
Breast milk also contains antibodies, which means that babies who are breastfed have passive immunity for longer. … Passive immunity to measles, mumps and rubella can last for up to a year, which is why the MMR vaccine is given just after your baby’s first birthday.
Koplik Spots. Mouth of a patient with Koplik spots, an early sign of measles infection. Three to five days after symptoms begin, a rash breaks out. It usually begins as flat red spots that appear on the face at the hairline and spread downward to the neck, trunk, arms, legs, and feet.
The rash usually lasts for three to five days and then fades away. In uncomplicated cases, people who get measles start to recover as soon as the rash appears and feel back to normal in about two to three weeks. But up to 40 percent of patients have complications from the virus.
A Newborn Care Specialist Course prepares a person who specializes in newborn care. Newborn Care Specialists assist parents.
The New Normal… I could finally see him, this little boy who had such a rough start into this crazy world. Who knew trips to the NICU, days, nights, weeks would be the new normal for us.
Not being able to hold this miracle baby or just touch him thru the glass window while he was getting warmed under the lights was hard. This is not what I expected, seeing him struggling to breath, feeding tubes, cloth over his eyes while he received light treatment for jaundice.
As a mom, no matter what age your kids are l, you always want to hold, smell and snuggle them as often as you can. This baby was a miracle to us in every way. The years of infertility, constant letdowns of IVF treatments not working and now, just hours old and having to face new battles.
You do a lot of soul searching when you feel the lowest of low; you are always asking yourself, “Why”?, “How come”?, “What did I do to deserve this”?.
When I finally got to hold him for a brief moment, I forgot all the guilt I was carrying and felt complete joy, love and I knew this little boy was going to be my precious gift from above.
My husband and older son had finally arrived for their first visit and the joy on my oldest sons face was just pure love. He was do happy to see this little boy he also had prayed for.
While dad and my number one son got to hold him, it set in with me that was going home tomorrow and this baby was not coming with me.
The doctors came in later that evening to explain all of the battles he was facing. I am didn’t hear anything but “he will be home for a few months”.
My heart sank, my heart broke, i was sick to my stomach. Who knew the next few months would be the new normal for us.
All of my time would be spent at the NICU. The New Normal…
20 Must-Have Pregnancy Apps for Every Mom-to-Be, I feel very old as a Parent that relies on this highly connected world we are now forced to live in. Smartphones, Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp. Must Have Pregnancy Apps, why should we need these?
Hello Belly: Pregnancy Tracker.
This might just be the pregnancy app with the cutest guides ever — and they’re informative, too. The app comes loaded with entertaining tips from top experts, week-by-week info about your growing baby, mommy yoga, womb visualizations, and more.
My wife and our first child we read books, yes looked on line at like WebMD. Rubbed Baby Oil on my wife’s growing Belly. We read someplace it stopped stretch marks.
The Bump Pregnancy App
This app features an addicting week-by-week pregnancy comparison guide that compares the stage of your pregnancy with an illustration of a cute fruit. Each day, the app is updated with fresh editorial content by the staff at The Bump. There are other features, too, like the ability to ask questions to the editors, medical experts, and other real moms. Don’t forget to document your pregnancy by utilizing the weekly photo albums!
Our way of comparing pregnancy and our development was all those trips for the Ultra Sounds. And that always asked question, “Do you want to know if it’s a boy or girl”. Not sure this App will be able to tell you this.
This one is ridiculous if you ask me. We are having A Baby Pool?
Baby Pool Pregnancy App
This is hysterical. Just like fantasy football, your friends and family members can start placing bets on your pregnancy. There’s a point system, so the friend who guesses the right gender will get 100 points, and the cousin who guesses the first letter of the name will get 25 points, and so on!
Our Baby Pool was our Parents and Relatives asking after trip to the Doctor. “How is everything going”. Are you going to find out what you’re having? Kind of like asking what are you having for Diner?
My point of all this is, you’re going to have a Baby. That Baby needs all your attention and love right from the start. Not a Baby App to teach you about raising your Baby. The first two years sets everything for your Baby.

Measles is wildly contagious and during an outbreak, it can spread, especially to older infants who aren’t vaccinated yet. … Over 95% of babies who get the shot at 12 months of age are protected against measles and over 99% are protected for a lifetime after the 2nd dose (given at least 1 month later).
Measles is an airborne disease which spreads easily through the coughs and sneezes of infected people. It may also be spread through contact with saliva or nasal secretions. Nine out of ten people who are not immune and share living space with an infected person will be infected . People are infectious to others from four days before to four days after the start of the rash. Most people do not get the disease more than once. Testing for the measles virus in suspected cases is important for public health efforts
Infants, of course, are not supposed to get the MMR vaccine until they’re at least 12 months old, so they’re at a higher risk of contracting the disease. Here is how you can best protect your baby from measles.
A child should receive the first shot when he or she is between 12–15 months, and the second when he’s between 4–6 years of age. If you’re not sure if you have had the diseases or the vaccines (prior to 1971 it was given in three separate shots), you can get the MMR vaccine as an adult
Measles can be dangerous, especially for babies and young children. From 2001-2013, 28% of children younger than 5 years old who had measles had to be treated in the hospital. For some children, measles can lead to: Pneumonia (a serious lung infection).
Breast milk also contains antibodies, which means that babies who are breastfed have passive immunity for longer. … Passive immunity to measles, mumps and rubella can last for up to a year, which is why the MMR vaccine is given just after your baby’s first birthday.
Koplik Spots. Mouth of a patient with Koplik spots, an early sign of measles infection. Three to five days after symptoms begin, a rash breaks out. It usually begins as flat red spots that appear on the face at the hairline and spread downward to the neck, trunk, arms, legs, and feet.
The rash usually lasts for three to five days and then fades away. In uncomplicated cases, people who get measles start to recover as soon as the rash appears and feel back to normal in about two to three weeks. But up to 40 percent of patients have complications from the virus.

The New Normal… I could finally see him, this little boy who had such a rough start into this crazy world. Who knew trips to the NICU, days, nights, weeks would be the new normal for us.
Not being able to hold this miracle baby or just touch him thru the glass window while he was getting warmed under the lights was hard. This is not what I expected, seeing him struggling to breath, feeding tubes, cloth over his eyes while he received light treatment for jaundice.
As a mom, no matter what age your kids are l, you always want to hold, smell and snuggle them as often as you can. This baby was a miracle to us in every way. The years of infertility, constant letdowns of IVF treatments not working and now, just hours old and having to face new battles.
You do a lot of soul searching when you feel the lowest of low; you are always asking yourself, “Why”?, “How come”?, “What did I do to deserve this”?.
When I finally got to hold him for a brief moment, I forgot all the guilt I was carrying and felt complete joy, love and I knew this little boy was going to be my precious gift from above.
My husband and older son had finally arrived for their first visit and the joy on my oldest sons face was just pure love. He was do happy to see this little boy he also had prayed for.
While dad and my number one son got to hold him, it set in with me that was going home tomorrow and this baby was not coming with me.
The doctors came in later that evening to explain all of the battles he was facing. I am didn’t hear anything but “he will be home for a few months”.
My heart sank, my heart broke, i was sick to my stomach. Who knew the next few months would be the new normal for us.
All of my time would be spent at the NICU. The New Normal…
