Mommy Play Date

Mommies need play dates more than babies, especially in the beginning. I was fortunate enough to have a play date today with my fried Keri, her daughter Kate (1 year), and a friend from Grad. School Christy.

This play date was needed more than I thought imaginable. The secret to keeping it together when attempting to navigate the first years of child rearing is talking with other women who can honestly speak about their experiences. All Moms need to know that it is OK that they some time lose their cool and that they are not the first to feel overwhelmed when a new baby comes into their life.

I just want to thank Keri for her honesty, her guidance, and her inspiration.
