I've belonged to a MOMS Club since Kelton was 6 months old. That is a bit over 8 years. I made friends there I thought would last a lifetime and those friends carried me through two babyhoods, two toddlerhoods and two preschoolers. My membership is up for renewal and, as I know would be the case early last year, I will not be renewing. I will be letting go and moving on.
The friendships I thought would last a lifetime, did not. And that is ok. The club and the people were there when I needed them for the kids. I had playgroups and every Tuesday there was a group-wide get together. It was great in the early years and I honestly don't know what I would have done without the people from those days.
Thanks for the memories, MC, both the great and the not-so (because even the not-so great moments taught me things). Thanks for being there when I had my babies and needed the support of other new moms but...as with most things, there comes a time of letting go.
This is me, letting go.
I'm glad you are able to let go. I'm sure it's hard, but sounds like it's what you need to do.
