Boobs

In honor of Breast Cancer awareness month I feel it is necessary that we all take a moment to focus on our breasts.  I currently have a Love/Hate relationship with mine.  I'm not one of those moms who really loves breast-feeding and finds it relaxing and natural and amazing and wants to do it till my child can actually tell me their done...Don't get me wrong... I DO IT, and I recommend it and advocate for it, however, I don't love it.  What once was a sexual and intimate part of my body is now a feeding trough.  I realize that I am very fortunate, because not all women are able to breast feed their babies.  I feel very blessed and lucky that it has been easy for me.  That being said...I worry that my perfect, full of milk, large, juicy breasts won't be the same in a year.  Oh well, I guess that's the price we pay as moms, right?  And my poor husband.  He is fascinated by these big melons on my chest ~ but allowing him to enjoy them in all their splendor just isn't happening...sorry, dude. 

Big, small, full, or pancaked, our breasts are amazing and important and special.  They are like these soft magic balloons that make people crazy.  They have magic powers. We (men, women, babies) are fascinated by them! We should all be thankful for our breasts and we should embrace them and love them and make sure to take excellent care of them.  Check them, let your doctor check them, and get a mammogram if you have a family history of breast cancer.  I did, and it's not that bad.  Take care of yourself.  Mommies are important and and so are our boobs!
