A Stroll Along Mommygroup Lane

I've been taking in the sights on my stroll down Mommy group Lane & the stories I could tell you! Quite shocking; for shame (tsk, tsk). It gives me great pleasure however, to unearth the underlying force which compels these women to meet & greet each other (strangers, mind you) & pretend to like each other. How do I have such insight, you ask? My perception of these dames isn't entirely from afar. You see, I myself am in a mommygroup. Gasp! Then by what right do I dare say anything about someone else? Well chums, let me give you the skinny on these 'moms' (and I use the term loosely).

#1: Not all mommy groups are created equally, but there are some Christian-based ones out there which are true credits to their name. The one I am active in is the one of which I speak. My son & I love it! The women are very honorable & very sweet. These women are too, too adorable & don't deserve to be loped in with these other crumb-snatchers. They will be excluded from my judgement.

#2: The evildoers and nay-sayers i speak of are non-believers from a past playgroup I had the misfortune of being a member of. They don't hold true the Gospel teachings (for shame, for shame) & they are charlatans. They appear to be quite normal upon first glance: having play dates, being friendly (under the guise of learning your personal business & then airing it out for all to see), being courteous to your children. Then one day: Pounce! They rub their noses in your private affairs & then proceed to spread malicious gossip throughout the mommy group. They cheat on their husbands (or their husbands are unfaithful to them & they ignore it), they care only about money & social status, they drink mercilessly & succumb to their innermost desires...with each other! It's Sodom & Gomorrah and all under the guise of attaining playmates for their children. We should be so cursed! I saw with my own two eyes the horrors these women are capable of & am proud to say I fled as quickly as I could. I'm a Christian 1st and foremost, The Bible says Have No Fellowship! So I must do as the Good Book says & separate myself as far as possible from these 'unclean things'. Gracious! I never knew women could be so awful. My husband & I are so glad to have found a wonderful Christ-centered playgroup for myself & my little one. The gray clouds are clearing once more for Blue Skies & happier days to come!

A witty exchange between the teapots

I was setting the table for midday tea & happened to eavesdrop on the exchange between two rather supercilious teapots, one made of silver & one made of porcelain. Here is what I happened to catch:


My dear, my dear you are cracked, if you think you can do a better job than I can!

Darling, you are full of milk if you believe you are the most efficient of us all.

Well, I'm no coveted family heirloom, but I'll do until another comes along.

Say, do mean to tell me that Your a prize? Ha! I'm the winner in this derby!

Well, I should say not! I can do anything you can do, and How!

We'll just see about that!


~My friends, we have just witnessed a dialogue between two teapots fighting for the proverbial throne. Or have we? Couldn't this be two women vying for the title best mom or best housewife, or just being plain catty? I think so. Think the dialogue sounds silly or doesn't ring true? Then my dear, you haven't been around many felines...err...women...have you?~
