Today I spent a good part of my day designing myself some Mommy Cards. I have seen them in magazines before and thought that it seemed a little silly, trading cards with other moms like a business transaction. I have however, on more than one occasion, found myself wishing that I had one of these cards after meeting a nice woman and her child. It's happened at the train set in the mall bookstore, a neighborhood park, and some other random places. I have walked away regretful that I didn't get a name or a number to see if us and our kids were a good fit to be friends. Finding a perfect parent friend is not easy you know, and being a young mom of a toddler can seem lonely at times. Most of my friends are without children or with children of the completely wrong age. Sometimes you just need a mom who understands exactly what you are going through. So I am going to use my mommy cards and I am going to use then proudly and who cares if people think I am weird, maybe I will make a new friend. :)
