[blparent] Summer- right around the corner

[Veronica Smith]

Actually where I did meet a lot of mom's was at the library.  They had
groups for kids of all ages, like 1 to 2 sat on their mom's lap while the
librarian read stories and sang songs.  3 and 4 year olds sat next to mom
and did the same listened to stories and learned songs using their hands and
feet and 5 year olds went into the room alone.  I still have friends I met
there.  You should look at your library and see if they have something like
that. V

I tried the Moms Club here but didn't find it very welcoming at all.  Sarah 
loved running around with the other toddlers, but few of the mothers would 
talk to me or interact, and I felt invisible and out of place.  Hope you 
have better luck!
