Each Baby Brain Is
Important.
Once a man was walking along a beach. The sun was
shining and it was a beautiful day. Off in the
distance he could see a person going back and forth
between the surf's edge and and the beach. Back and
forth this person went. As the man approached he
could see that there were hundreds of starfish
stranded on the sand as the result of the natural
action of the tide.
The man was stuck by the the apparent
futility of the task. There were far too many starfish.
Many of them were sure to perish. As he approached the
person continued the task of picking up starfish one by
one and throwing them into the surf.
As
he came up to the person he said, "You must be crazy.
There are thousands of miles of beach covered with
starfish. You can't possibly make a difference."
The person looked at the man. He then
stooped down and pick up one more starfish and threw it
back into the ocean. He turned back to the man and said,
"It sure made a difference to that one!"

In 2006, Liz Kulp, author of The
Best I Can Be Living with Fetal Alcohol Syndrome or
Effects decided to tie and give fleece blankets to
clinics as the first gift a new mother is given for her
new baby. Brochures explaining why mother's should not
drink alcohol were not enough to make a difference.
Since then, Liz and friends have tied over 250 blankets
- hopefully Building Better Baby Brains for 250
children. Join in their program for your community -
blankets have been given to clinics and pregnancy
centers.
