President's Letter
Moms,
Thank you so much for your interest in the MOMS Club® of the
Charles Town Area!
We are a local chapter of the International MOMS (Moms
Offering Moms Support) Club (http://www.momsclub.org/). Our organization
has the following goals:
- to
provide a support group for mothers who choose to stay at home to raise
their children
- to
provide a forum for topics of interest to mothers
- to
help children in our community
- and,
to perform at least one service project yearly helping needy children.
When we reference support, we mean friendship; through the
MOMS Club you will be introduced to other women who have experienced the same
joys and trials of childrearing. We also offer many new friends for your
little ones. Let's face it - sometimes Mommies don't make the best princess
or robot playmate! This is a great opportunity for your kids to find other
kids with common interests.
When you become a member of the MOMS Club of the Charles Town
Area, you will receive our monthly newsletter and calendar of
activities. The calendar is
put together each month with the whole club providing input. Anyone who has an idea for a
playgroup, park day, or a community activity can have it put on the monthly
calendar. We find a lot of fun
places to go when we put our heads together. We are always open to new
ideas and activities!
I was so excited about becoming a stay-at-home Mom, and I love
it. While it is the best, most rewarding job I could ever have asked for,
it is also at times trying, frustrating, and just plain messy! I become very jealous of my husband
working late, dressing in nice stain-free clothes, having “business
lunches” with no crayons or tantrums involved, or even being able to use
the bathroom by himself. Those feelings combined with lack of sleep, putting
someone else’s needs first, and dealing with the fabulous first days when
your child learns how to say "NO" can be too hard to handle by
yourself. Our dynamic group of women is always there to lend a hand, ear or
just throw you that sympathetic look that says, "I've been there, you
will get through this".
Everyone's situation is different, but if you heard yourself
anywhere in the above description, I urge you to find a support group -
even if ours is not the right one for you (Although we hope it is!). We have
a lot to offer, including playgroups, park/pool days, child-friendly tours
and day trips, a chance to offer community service, and a monthly Moms
Night Out.
Go hug your kids!
Sarah McGivern
President
