MAGICAL MOMMY MEET-UP

Calling all Magical Families Mommies…this blog post is dedicated just for YOU!

Let’s face it, motherhood is hard work. I know we’ve all shed our fair share of blood, sweat, tears…and hopefully lots of giggles, tickles, and kisses too! We pour our energy into creating safe and loving homes for our children. We spend countless hours preparing, planning, strategizing, cleaning, cooking, carpooling, and the list goes on. We often times go to bed tired and wake up the next day and do it all over again. And, if we are honest, even when we are resting, our brains are still working around the clock thinking about lunches that need to be packed, laundry needing to be washed, and Cheerios needing to be vacuumed up from the carpet.

Motherhood is hard work…but so worth it. Being a mommy is one of the most important jobs on the planet. One of my favorite parts of motherhood over this last year (we brought our son Ethan home from Taiwan in April 2010) is teaching Ethan how to blow kisses, seeing him run up to his Daddy with pure excitement when he comes home from work, and singing to him every night before bed. What sweet joy. Sweet, hard-working joy. Can anyone relate?

So, what would a magical weekend at Disney be without a MAGICAL afternoon out…just for the Mommas!! Can I get a high-five, amen, and a yes please!?!?!

We invite all Mommies to join us for some time away from our husbands and kiddos on Saturday afternoon. We will enjoy some desserts and refreshments at Beaches & Cream Soda Shop, but better than that, we will enjoy some time with each other…distraction free. Oh, I can’t wait!

So, mark your calendars and get ready for some much needed mommy-only time…we can’t wait to celebrate the hard-working joy of motherhood with you!

Can’t wait to see you there…keep rockin’ it Mommies!

Love,
Melissa *Elswick
