"I take great delight in my role as a nurturer, which allows me to express my deepest identity as a woman. I never fail to be struck by the way that women, young women, and even little girls seem to have an instinctive interest and ability in nurturing. It is not only a mother's primary responsibility but also part of our 'individual premortal, mortal, and eternal identity and purpose'. To nurture is to teach, to foster development, to promote growth, to feed and to nourish. Who would not shout for joy at being given such a blessed role?"

Yes, that girl definitely needs a "baby" for her birthday! I like how she checks out the price tag as if to say "Now, what is this doing here?" Gramma says that I used to tuck my dolls under my shirt to nurse them when I was little and she was feeding the boys - maybe that's why I am so interested in pursuing this post-partum doula thing 50 years later!
