Mommy Friends
I’m late today with my post because I spent all day yesterday with one of my dear friends who I hardly ever see anymore.
It’s for good reason. We’re productive mothers - I write, she goes to school. There was a groovy year there, when we both had babies and we weren’t working when we would spend the day going to the lake with the kids and bopping around thrift stores. But, you know. . .
Now, we just take the moments when she’s in a school break and hope we can manage one day together. She came to see my new house and we explored my new town.
We bopped around new thrift stores and had lunch at an old fashioned soda shop.
I find it so much more difficult to be friends with mothers. There’s just so much busy to work around. But, I do cherish my mommy-friends when we can find some mutual time to just be.

Your day sounds so fun!
It is hard to connect when you have a family and if you have a job, too, it’s like two strikes against you. I think people hesitate to call because they assume you’re busy.
