Why I am thankful for MOPS...
I am so thankful for MOPS because where else can you eat ham & chocolate cookies while discussing in detail your episiotomy scar, how tough your nipples are now, and how long it’s been since you shaved your legs – all while nursing your newborn in your pj’s and with no shower today? ♥ ♥ ♥ –Jenni
I get to meet other moms that are going through the same as I. [Als0] get a little break. The learning experience. –Lauren
The chance to get a little “me” time to be around other mothers that can relate to the every day things of motherhood. –Amy
I am thankful because I get friendship and fellowship. I learn neat new “homemaker” tricks. I get biblical principals that I can apply to daily life as a mom. –Renee
I am thankful for MOPS because I meet new friends and I feel loved and wanted.

Nine years ago, I moved to a new area, as a brand new, first time mom. MOPS was a life saver for me. It became a place where I could go for encouragement, advice, and new friendships…a place where I fit in. And eventually a place where I could serve and use/grow my talents. I love my MOPS/mommy support group! I’m sad that this is my last year, but I am taking away so many great memories and lasting friendships. –Julie
It’s a place where I can come and relax from all the cleaning and housework. It helps me to learn new things about being a mom, meeting new people and making new friends. –Lacy

Friendship! To know I am not alone as a mother who has meltdowns with my kids. Lol –Sandra

It’s a lot of fun! I am thankful for MOPS because I like being open about our home life and topics about how we handle certain situations about our kids at home or opinions about it. I like donating crafts to people in need, too! –Amy
