Everyone does know every one though, and that is honestly annoying because they think they can just pop by and tell you all about so and so and if your kid was bad at school, or awesome at school. Then again, I thought our hometown was small and the county I live in has a population of about half of that town. The ENTIRE county..... not even 10,000 ppl. ugh. <br /><br />There arent that many kids here in this town though, and no one goes out and plays anymore, becuase we're right on a highway about 45min from DSM, and with all those kids being kidnapped, its pretty much a ghost town right now.

And, I know my mom friends are busy too. I think that you kind of have to plan it out or time will pass by and a year will have gone and you have not interacted with your mom friends.

I think it all comes down to chemistry like any friendship. We are all busy so it really has to be worth it to make time to connect. <br /><br />It has taken me 3 years to get close to a mom across the street from me because we are so different. I think we finally accept that we are both good moms, just different. She does not allow her kids to watch any TV while I unfortunately depend on it to get stuff done. She lets her daughter outside alone to play and I would never do that. <br /><br /> MomLove101https://www.blogger.com/profile/17457699409123389674noreply@blogger.com
