Dear Reader,

 Read the API Response to the 2016 AAP Infant Sleep Statement |
Call us idealists, call us dreamers. It's what we must be as parents, ever hopeful for our children's futures in every action we take to foster compassion.
Our work in our homes is a powerful statement and the most fundamental change we can make--especially because it starts with ourselves. Nearly universal in AP families in our experience is a natural desire to serve and bring this compassionate parenting to others. With our children alongside we bring messages of harmony in the home and in our communities.
It's been an exciting AP Month - from the wall of harmony and the beautiful photos you've submitted, to the incredible posts on APtly Said, API's blog.
Words and pictures are so powerful, and even more so the groups getting together around the world to meet and share.
API's position statement on Parenting for World Harmony captures the connections between parenting and peace, sharing it around the world.
The AP Month auction demonstrates the incredible generosity of our community and its desire to see this work continue, whether through donations or through bidding--and it's fun!
The daily tips and encouragement help us be mindful each day of this theme and provide opportunities to share the message of world harmony in our own ways.
We will wrap it all up with a bow in our Attached Family issue on Nurturing Peace: Parenting for World Harmony!That bow? Well, API became one of the first 2016 Top Nonprofits this month! Thank you for your good word!
Thank you for sharing this time with us and putting a spotlight on Attachment Parenting during this month!
Is there an API Leader you appreciate, or a volunteer you have worked with at API and appreciate? Please share with us your experience.
API welcomes newly accredited API Leaders, and gratefully recognizes the service of many API Leaders with anniversaries this month.
Thank you,
Attachment Parenting International
