At LLLI conferences, there is something that captures the essence of an LLL meeting, the warmth of a mother-
to-mother exchange.
It's simple really.
It's us. Us in all our ages and stages of mothering and leadering. Us from our various cultures and corners of the world. Us connecting and converging, working through differences, finding common ground, looking to the future, affirming the past. It's us, being stretched and pulled. It's us holding and comforting. It's us celebrating.

It's us, mothers all.

 

THE FOUNDERS' TEA

A Proper Tea is much nicer than a Very Nearly Tea, which is one you forget about afterwards, according to Pooh's Little Instruction Book. The Founders' Tea was most definitely a Proper Tea. "Music from a Mother's Heart" wais this year's theme. Grand. Wonderful. Magnificent. A highlight of the Conference! are superlatives about the Tea shared on evaluations.
