Katrina's Babies

We check the news several times a day, keeping track of how many evacuees, how many victims. We cannot believe the collective ineptitude and complete lack of planning exhibited by governments on both the local and federal levels. What a bitter, angry disappointment. At the same time, Houston with very little federal assistance has absorbed, sheltered, and fed about 100,000 new residents without a blink, and with the snap of his finger our mayor (aren't I glad I voted for him!) has opened up our largest public facilities. The power of the people, indeed.

I sent this to some people already, but mamatoto has some brilliant ideas on getting children out of dangerous situations safely. See one, do one, TEACH one!

Pleas for infant formula continue. People can dismiss breastfeeding, but . . .
