What is The M.I.L.K?

I came up with "The M.I.L.K" as the name of the blog, because unlike "M.I.L.F" which is objectifying with moms being looked at from the outside in, the expression "M.I.L.K" is about us admiring each other from the inside out; it's how we talk about each other amongst ourselves. Sure it's great be told we're hot (and the older I get, the less offended I am when I overhear some classless individual refer to me that way) but truth be told, I'm more interested in BECOMING a 'mom my friends like to know,' or seeking out another mom I'D like to know. "M.I.L.K" has an aspirational quality to it I quite like. Which is what happens if we're parenting well, and parenting consciously. We grow, stretch and evolve in many ways, alongside our kids.
