First Mom's Monday Crochet Night Out: Informally Delightful!

For years I've heard mom's tell me how they would really love to learn to crochet, or just find some down time to be with other ladies.  With all the responsibilities of raising the next generation, coupled with serving their families meals, caring for the home, sometimes an elder parent or a special needs child, who has time to relax and enjoy a craft?  Well, if the old adage is true, "If mama ain't happy, ain't nobody happy...", I figured that it would actually make us all more fruitful in all that we do by having some time away from our work.  Let's face it ladies, our work, as glorious and important as it is, is rarely finished.  If we wait until every dish is clean, meal prepared, laundry caught up, and school lesson completed, we will be in retirement.  Even Jesus, in the thick of His ministry on Earth would get into a boat and steal away with His friends for some rest from time to time.  I say we follow His example!

Here are the amazing mom's who were able to come last night.  I am so blessed to be surrounded by women like this!  Three ladies began learning crochet, one worked on a beautiful quilt, and two crochet pros were able to make some progress on existing projects.  Cynthia said, "Not only was it fun learning to crochet, it was really refreshing to just hang out w/other ladies."
