Kookaburra's Kitchen

Hey guys – this is going to be a somewhat different post. Women24’s latest newsletter has a “love my body theme” after our own Meagan Karstens wrote an awesome love letter to her body. So following with that idea we (the Women24 team) have decided to jot down a couple of reasons why we love our bodies.

This is a cool exercise to do when you are having a particularly ugly day – helps a bit with that little bugger called self esteem.

So here goes:

I love my feet and the torture they endure every Friday night while I wear morse-high heels – enabling me to look tall and come hithery on the dance floor.
 
I love my random freckles that pop up in the strangest of places, like my lip and the sole of my foot. They make me feel original and slightly kooky.
 
I love by bones for putting up with the most clumsiest and accident prone person to inhabit this earth and to have never cracked or broken under the harshest of tortures. (Ballet dancing was just not for me.)
 
I love my liver for … well if you link to this post, you would understand why.
 
I love my boobs and cleavage for filling out the bras, tops and dresses my skinny friends would love to pull off.
 
I love my lips for forming the perfect pout for when I want to get my own way – without you I would have gotten a lot less during my ‘rebellious” teenage years.
 
And I love my eyes for being the one thing I got from my gorgeous mother.

Ok now I feel full of myself, think that’s enough.
