Childhood Ambition: I really wanted to be a lawyer or a teacher

Describe your experience as a momstown member?

I wish I had known about momstown Milton when Bella was younger. I have made so many new friends and it is great to know that there is a support system right here in my neighbourhood when I need one. All the moms I have met have been very welcoming. I have been to a couple of Moms Night Out events that have given me a very much needed break and both my kids and I have made some new friends that I think we will have for a long time.
