The first and third Thursday of each month are always great for me because I go to MOPS. I have already expressed my love for MOPS, so I won't go into that again, but I will repeat that I really do love this group of ladies!
One of my jobs at the MOPS meeting is to do announcements. I think I got this job because I have a big mouth and, although it is the number one fear of most people, I have no problems with public speaking. The only people I couldn't speak in front of would be these guys:
I will never be the keynote speaker at a clown convention because that is MY number one fear. I almost had a panic attack just Googling clowns.
My other job at MOPS is to do a game or ice breaker. Since I don't actually have to participate, I try to find something very embarrassing to make the other moms do. Why? Because it is really funny for me to watch them. Mean? Yes, but so far I haven't been fired from my job so I am going to keep doing it.
Since Halloween is a few weeks away and I was coming up with the game while watching Project Runway, I decided to give the ladies supplies to make a Halloween costume. This is what those wacky moms came up with:
I love that the moms in my group are such good sports. I love that they can be silly and not take themselves too seriously. Being a mom is such a hard job and it is great that twice a month we can get together for fellowship and fun. So moms of FBC MOPS, I salute you and thanks for the laughs today!!
