Hello and Happy April to you!

It’s happy for me because it’s my birthday on April 4th, and my father’s on April 11th. The first weekend is Easter (also known as Ostara—celebration of the spring equinox—in the Pagan and Wiccan religions).

Hopefully by the time you read this, the weather has become a bit more stable, and you will be able to enjoy a little walk or some fresh air no matter where you are.

I am happy that this month, we have a contributor from the IFBPW Agriculture Committee. I’d love to see more entries from our sisters around the world because they are part of the BPW family as well.

In addition, if you were at CSW and attended any of the forums related to health and well-being, please send me an email about your experience. I’d love to feature it in this section of the magazine.

This past month, we had a discussion on Women in Medicine and Health and how Women’s medicine has changed over the years in honor of Women’s History Month. Our small discussions are a lot of fun and I encourage you to attend.

As of this writing, our next meeting will focus on any necessary business we need to talk about. We can also address any ideas for the future of the Health Committee.

Since Mother’s Day is in May, I hope we can encourage a discussion on mothers in our lives, whether we are a mother or not.

June is a month before the General Assembly so final preparations will be undertaken.
