- Joel and Connor were at school and playgroup, so I was able to get my nails done and get an arm massage while I was getting my nails done. My arm is so tired...not sure if it is the muscles atrophying or what, but it just aches, so having that massage, which I am hoping helps the muscles and blood flow to the arm, was so nice! I left the place with pretty nails and a smile on my face!
- What a wonderful program we have in our church to be there for other women. Once a month, my companion and I "visit teach" two other women in our congregation. I love doing it so much and it is so nice to not only get to know my companion more, but get to know the lovely women with whom we visit. It is such a nice time and fun to share mommy moments with one another. Can't wait to do it next month!
- Tonight was "mom's night out" for a group of women that belong to an organization called "Mothers of Preschoolers" I belonged to this group when we lived in our other town. It is a wonderful Christian organization of moms who meet together a couple of times a month and have a speaker on some topic that is REALLY good. I will never forget the topic of drowning from a local fireman...those images and 911 calls will forever be a reminder to keep my heavy headed toddler away from even just 2 INCHES of water! Other times the speakers are amazingly spiritual and you get to hear how other moms are having a hard time with their children in terms of discipline or kindness. So anyway, there was a "mom's night out" where the MOPS moms went to a restaurant. I am so lucky that I get invited to go to these things! Not only was it a wonderful time, but I was able to JOIN MOPS (because I finally have a person who can watch Connor in the morning....back in the day it was a MOPS at night that I went to). I am so excited to get to hang out with all of these ladies even MORE now! They make me laugh, they listen to my stories, I LOVE listening to their stories, and they are truly some of the most genuinely lovely people you will ever meet in your entire life. I am so lucky to live where I do and be surrounded by really GOOD women trying to raise really GOOD kids. And I am so lucky to hear that we all have our moments of wanting to scream from trying to raise our really GOOD kids LOL.
Well that is my excitement from today. I am headed to bed so happy tonight! It is such a wonderful thing to get to know people all day long. I am pretty sure I am a people person....I LOVE being around people, I love talking to people, and now I am off to dream about people. Have a good night!
