McCleary Mama: Look at me GROW!
http://mcclearymama.blogspot.com/2011/10/look-at-me-grow.html
Thursday, October 13, 2011. Look at me GROW! Today, I took lots of deep breaths. You know, the heavy sighing kind of breath, when something so amazing happens to you that you can't believe it's real? JUST A PARENT" is no longer part of my vocabulary, and when I hear other parents say it now, there's like a spring loaded trigger in my head that snaps and goes in to advocate role. I instantly want to have a conversation with the person saying that they are "just a parent! I am so proud. Proud of you April!

McCleary Mama: Hands On Advocacy
http://mcclearymama.blogspot.com/2012/02/hands-on-advocacy.html
Thursday, February 23, 2012. As one of the 3 hats I wear for a job, being a Coordinator for Parents United is one of them. I'm very lucky, that all 3 of my jobs mesh so well together. I work with Parents and get them to stand up for things they believe in around Early Learning especially, but other issues as well. Advocacy is what I do! My best friend and partner in crime, Kylee Allen, is a Coordinator with me of Parents United. We have a lot of fun. And we were really wet! HANDS ON ADVOCACY TRAINING.
