I am a homeschooling mom to six children, we have five cats and my daughter fosters cats for an animal rescue! My family looks at us strange sometimes too *sigh*! I am going to go look around. It is very nice to meet you. This is my first time here and you sound like a lovely family!

I was glad to find you still on Mom Pack. Are you still making purses? My ladybug purse has finally bit the dust and my tan/ivory/burgandy courdory is on its last season as well. Please e-mail me a link to your purses if you are still creating. All the best. Heather Hi Rachel,

It’s been a long time!!! I was glad to find you still on Mom Pack. Are you still making purses? My ladybug purse has finally bit the dust and my tan/ivory/burgandy courdory is on its last season as well. Please e-mail me a link to your purses if you are still creating.

All the best.

Heather

I've written several best-selling books for teens and tweens including And the Bride Wore White and Lies Young Women Believe. I am focusing the next three years of my life to standing up for tweens specifically in the area of modesty. As you may know... Last year the American Psychological Association unveiled the results of a two year study on the sexualization of girls. The results were stunning! The task force believes that the culture is pressuring little girls to grow up too fast. Specifically, the fashion industry is creating and marketing sexual clothing—in 2003 parents of 7-12 year olds spent $1.6 million on thong underwear—, cosmetic companies are marketing lines to girls as young as FIVE, television is calling for girls to be boy-crazy and more! (I know...you know! But isn't it great to hear the APA say this!!!???) The APA directly links this to teen eating disorders, depression and early sexual activity. THEN...they link that to women who grow up to be sexually REPRESSED due to their body image issues and sexual scars. (The greatest irony is that the APA actually states that "value and religious instruction" are two of the greatest tools to rescue little girls and ultimately WOMEN!) I'm calling for 50,000 women to sign my Bod Squad Petition. (At www.secretkeepergirl.com where you can also download the entire APA report.) I've been interviewed by the global Bible of the fashion industry, Women's Wear Daily, twice about their concern that the industry as gone too far! With their help, I can present the APA's survey to fashion leaders and the voice of 50,000 women who want the fashion industry to take responsibility for what they create for tweens and teens and how they market it! We posted the petition three weeks ago and have about 3000 signatures without any promotion. We will get these signatures easily if not more! (I am on track to have 60 modest fashion shows/tween events next year with about 60,000 in attendance. If the worst case scenario results...I'd get the signature at those events.) But we'll get them faster with help! So, I'm asking for your help! I'm wondering if you'd be interested in blogging about this? I'm shamelessly committed to protecting these little girls!

I am in the mompack group and read your posting then had to come over and check out your blog. Being a stay at home mom is a rather tough job. The most rewarding career of them all!! I am not able to stay home with my kids due to financial burdens however if given the opportunity I would jump at it. My youngest is 6 and my oldest is 17!! Just today I was looking at my 6 year and thinking wow where did the time go. My oldest daughter was taking her senior pictures for school and my little one was watching with joy. She even took a picture with her older sister in a cap and gown..tooo cute....but it made me realize that even though she is 6, it will all go by so fast and before I know it she will be taking her senior pictures all grown up. I love that you have the opportunity you do and good job. thanks, andrea I just wanted to say that I think being a stay at home mom is awesome.
