Daughters

Yesterday was "Take Your Daughter to Work Day." Since I work at home, I took her to Girl Scouts. ;o) There are lots of great empowering quotes floating out there, guideposts for our girls to help them become successful, wonderful, GOOD women. Here are a few from U Maine Extension

“I have been absolutely terrified every moment of my
life and I’ve never let it keep me from doing a single
thing that I wanted to do.”— Georgia O'Keefe

“Girls need to experience themselves as
subjects of their own life, not as objects
of someone else’s gaze.” — Mary Pipher

And my favourite:

“If all you are ever told is to be a good girl,
how do you ever grow up to be a great woman?” — Ms. Foundation for Women

Great article, actually, with great advise for raising boys and girls. I think I'll go read it closer.
