Ginni Rometty rakes it in

• Food for thought. Yesterday, I linked to an article about Australian Senator Larissa Waters, who made history earlier this week when she became the first person to breastfeed her child in the country's federal Parliament.

Her story quickly went viral, garnering proud shoutouts from moms all over the world (including Facebook's Sheryl Sandberg). Waters herself, though, seemed surprised by the hubbub.

In an interview with the New York Times, the senator said: "Breastfeeding is a normal and natural thing that women have been doing since time immemorial, and in that sense, it's quite strange to me that it caused such a sensation. What it really says is that we need more young women in Parliament so that when we breastfeed our babies it's not considered news."

With Mother's Day coming up, this seems like the perfect sentiment to end the week. And Waters sums it up so neatly that there's not much to add—other than to note that the universe where we need more young women should be extended to include parliaments, official residences, boardrooms, and corner offices around the globe.
