The Girl Scouts is where I became acquainted with the idea that a woman can do anything. Learning that early on has a tremendous impact on the development of a young girl's personality. It had a huge impact on me. Girl Scouts is where I first learned about philanthropy and fell in love with the concept of helping others-in my troop this was very important. We did a lot of community service like picking up trash and feeding the homeless. Loving humankind was something that echoed throughout my time at Girl Scouts.

I fancy myself as being a fairly competent person.

I don't know that I'm going to entirely do cloth diapers. I'd like to be ambitious about it, but in all honesty, I can't say that I will.

My hope is that I can somehow raise the level of consciousness about world events.

My husband and I try to spend some time every night that I'm home talking without distractions.

We live in a culture where were bombarded with so much noise and so much insecurity.
