It was good to have some time with other moms. Maximilian was quite funny and wasn't to into just laying on the floor. He of course wanted to move all over the place. I enjoyed talking to the other ladies, too. I realized that I don't really have good friends here and how most of that is my own doing. Trying to reconnect now is hard and frustrating and a bummer sometimes. I thought friends/friendship would look so different than it does here. I am missing friendship the way I used to know it and in all the transition this last year I am finding I just want to scream, "Things aren't the same." Which is true, but doesn't really get you anywhere. I am glad I went today and know the reality is the more you go to the things the more friendships have the ability to blossom.

Play Group
I finally made it to my antenatal play group. The prenatal classes here are called antenatal and they encourage you to get together with the other moms for coffee groups once your kiddos are born. I have yet to make it to one until today.
