What seemed like ages ago, last spring, I ran into a cute newer mom at a Teriyaki shop. We started chatting about our babies while waiting for our food and she invited me to check out a mom's meeting in the area. Thinking little of it at the time, I shelved it in the attic of my brain.
Fast forward to earlier this year. A dear friend of mine was involved in a local mom's group, so I thought I would give it a shot. Not only did I find one of the most awesome networks of women, but it is the same group that I shelved the idea for last year!
A social networking site, meetup.com offers a ton of groups, not just mom-based, where you can sign up and cyber-mingle, before taking part in the various activities.
The reason I bring this up is because the particular group of women involved in my moms group are not only moms (all in a similar boat) but offer an incredible range of interests, perspective and personality. I truly wish I had joined sooner. I urge you to check it out as I am sure there is bound to be something in your areas as well.
