Frayser-Millington Mom's Dinners

Since before I started homeschooling I have gone to Mom's Dinners. It started the year before Erin started kindergarten (she is in 7th grade now). I had NO IDEA what I was doing or going to do, so I went to a dinner to talk to other moms about getting started. That was the Frayser-Millington Support Group out of Shelby County, TN. Even though we have moved to Mississippi, I still like to get together with them.

There are many reasons I like my Fray-Mill ladies. Liz Gallina, the support group leader, is one of the most talented, creative women I know. The ladies I meet at these are very sweet. There is always the presence of the Lord. Granted we goof around and have fun but it is good, clean fun. I don't hear these women complain too much. I don't hear these women gripe about their husbands. They don't talk or gossip. It's constructive criticism with love. It's encouragement when you need it. It's the kind of Christian homeschool support group you like.

I live an hour away so it is difficult to make it to every dinner but I do try to make it to other activities. They have a Valentine and a Back-to-School Skating party. I try to make it to one of those. But there is one Fray-Mill Mom's Dinner that I really try to make it to and that's the Stay-As-Long-As-You-Like Mom's Dinner which happens to be tonight. It is usually in January but we have had some crazy snow/ice weather so it was postponed. These nights are usually the same as the others but you just stay a little longer. We eat, we "shop" at the "flea markets," we listen to a particular topic, we play games and whatever else the Lord leads us to. I am expecting to be encouraged and refreshed when I leave. OK, so I might not be refreshed if I stay up too late. But, I will be by Monday!!!!

Liz and Ladies, I don't get to see you often. And you may never read this post on my blog, but I will NEVER forget you! Thanks for making my first years of homeschooling more fun and memorable than I could imagine.

May the Lord continue to bless your group with many more years of leading and encouraging!
