This from my friend Liz Armstrong. " It's Mother's Day Weekend. (Note I have hereby expanded the celebration from just one day in May to the whole weekend. This is part of a personal, incremental stealth campaign to eventually make it Mum's Day 365 days per year (and 366 during Leap Years)."

"As Sandra Steingraber says, mothers are the first environment, and - at the end of her illuminating and marvelous book, Having Faith - she writes: "May the world's feast be made safe for women and children. May mother's milk run clean again. May denial give way to courageous action.""

Love your mom.
