I had the distinct priviledge of getting away from the busyness of my own family to spend a whole Saturday with my Dmom to hang out at the Second Annual What Women Want Expo in Great Falls. It was an action packed day. We missed out on the line dancing, but engaged in seminars on stretching for life and pilates. We also had the wonderful opportunity to listen to Ann Jillian speak ~ so wonderful. She made us laugh and cry. It was powerful. We also had the opportunity to meet several women from MT who have joined together fundraising for breast cancer and other female cancers awareness.
Not to mention, the pampering along the way. Many the freebee and many the brochure, magnets, pencils, etc. But through it all, I saw many women all of whom were doing nothing more than enjoying being a woman! It was wonderful to share that with my mom.
Now, I have a little better idea of what women really want. I'm celebrating this month all of my women friends. As a mom and wife, I had really downplayed my feminism; but I'm working hard to embrace it in every aspect of my life.
