Say Say O' Playmate....

Hello Lexington FAMILY Magazine readers!

While trying to drum up some good candidates for a focus group this week, (ask me how you can get involved--first meeting: August 3rd at 6:30 PM at Copperfield Clubhouse), I've realized, that I am not friends with a lot of other Moms! :(

Of course the other Moms in the office will already be at this meeting, so they're not an option to ask. I poked around and realized that I really only know a handful of other Moms on a personal level. So my question to you is this: how did you meet other Mommy's in the same boat as you? Was it through church, work, your husband's work friends, old college roommates?

We go to church, but don't know many of the parishioners on a first name basis (our own fault--that's another one of my goals this year); the Mommy's at my work all have older children; it's hard connecting with Brian's work wives because, well, they're MEN! so you have to go through two other people to get to the wife!; and I didn't go to college in Kentucky.

So what am I to do? I'm sort of the first in my group of friends to have a child (yes, I'm the pioneer :) Perhaps you have a suggestion? Or already have a playgroup in mind I can join with Margee? I'm trying to find kids around her age-range (she's almost 8 months---can you believe it?), to about 3-4 years old. This way she has some influence from older children who can teach her things and help her out. Any takers? Maybe we could start our own playgroup? Let me know!

Until next time: .....Come out and play with me!
