Here is a link to an article by a woman I had the privilege to meet before we moved to York. Her name is Janell Hofmann, and she lives in the town where I grew up (Sandwich, MA) with her five kids and husband. She lives an inspirational life and is involved with an organization that works with women freed from prostitution and sexual slavery called Made by Survivors.
She is also a writer and posted a blog worth reading called "'Mom, I'm Fat:' One Mother's Inspired Response to her 7 year old": http://www.rachelsimmons.com/2012/01/mom-im-fat-one-mothers-inspired-response-to-her-7-year-old/
Yay for bold and confident women! And a double yay for aiming to teach our children to be the same!
