New Mommy Friends

People always said that you'll meet new mommies when you have kids, and I never really put that much thought into it. I have so many friends, who has room for more?!?!! Well let me tell you...you do. You have room for friends that you can commiserate with about explosive poops, and puking across the room and yelling at your spouse because you don't get enough sleep. They are the people who don't mind that you show them 100 pictures of your kid, and in return get to brag about their baby being able to hold their head up. They understand when you're about to SNAP, and when you really DO need that glass of wine. It takes the pressure off of your other friends - sure they are there for you 24/7 and WANT to hear about the good, the bad and the ugly - but it's not fair to dump it all on them. They are the friends who want to snuggle and spoil and pinch your baby. They want to hear how they are progressing and how you are doing. They want the cliff notes version. I'm so grateful to have these new people in my life - it helps me keep my good friends even closer, and open my heart up to new people.
