These are my notes from MOPS (Mothers of PreSchoolers) today. It was about raising kids with grace. 

It took me a long time to be willing to brave a mommy group. At first I was enjoying my baby, then was afraid I wouldn’t like the other moms or they wouldn’t like me and would judge me. Instead I found an amazing group of mamas who shared the journey of teething and toilet training. As I cycle out of this group, I’m looking forward to reconnecting with the original crew who also cycled out as their kids grew. We are better together.
