You have really captured it all. I knew of course that Rebecca did these clinics, but to actually experience one through your writing, pictures and video is a real eye opener. Thank you for that. This mom is so overwhelmingly proud of her accomplishments and of her sharing and mentoring. Fatty, what an amazing article. You have really captured it all.
