I have been busy writing a recommendation to Pi Beta Phi for my niece who is off to the University of Missouri.  It seems like yesterday she was six and was the flower girl in my wedding.     

Remember in college, if you were in a sorority, you considered everyone your “sister?”  Well, I have found that motherhood is the biggest sisterhood of all.  Give me five minutes with any Mom and I usually walk away feeling connected.  Just yesterday at the pool snackshop I walked up to place my order and another mom complimented me on my tank top from J. Crew and said that she had three of them herself.  Not less than two minutes later we were talking about our boobs ( or lack of them after nursing) and debating whether or not we should wear a regular bra with the straps showing, or go with the strapless bra.  We determined that if you are an A cup or less, you could go without.  Interestingly, I couldn’t tell you her name but today when I saw her we gave eachother a little smile and nod.
