My kiddos, homeschooling, midwifery, birth & babies, homeopathy, natural health, aromatherapy, fiber crafts (knitting and crocheting), reading, astrology, music, animals, religion & politics... "A truth's initial commotion is directly proportional to how deeply the lie was believed…When a well-packaged web of lies has been sold gradually to the masses over generations, the truth will seem utterly preposterous and its speaker, a raving lunatic."
