Mom Groups

I am trying to be open minded about meeting other mom's and hanging out in "mom groups." I go to a nursing mom's group at Morton Plant, mommy and me yoga, and today I went to a different nursing mom's group at Mease Countryside. I think it's important for me to have connections with other moms and become part of some new social circles that involves other people with kids, but it's hard for me to be open to making new friends. I've been lucky to have a pretty amazing group of friends, some of which I have known since elementary school. I feel like we all know each other so well. Things just pick up right where they left off. Like when Juli came over today. I haven't seen her in over a year and it was like no time had passed. She got to meet Elliott and even with this big change in my life, things just fall right back into place. Meeting new people means having to open up and almost start over again. They don't know my background, my quirks, my likes and dislikes....etc, etc. But I am trying to be open minded. It may take some time, but I think Elliott and I will find our place. We'll meet some new people and I know we will both be better off for it.
