Flashes of Serenity

Hi Girls! Have any of you gotten a phone call from a woman named Elaine Miller? She said she lives in Rome and is interested in speaking at my MOPS group. She has written a book called "Flashes of Serenity". Anyone heard of her or maybe had her speak to your group? She also has a website.....www.flashesofserenity.com. I'm reluctant to bring a stranger in to speak at one of my meetings....

yes I took a picture of the fudge, I love the fudge.

Great meeting today! You Chitt gals know how to host! Annie and Helen as always I love hearing what you have to share and it is always great to see everyone face to face.

Finances speaker

Hey ladies! Christy had asked about a speaker on finances and I referred her to my financial advisor, Lou Gonzales. He's a Christian and wonderful. After talking to him some more, I realize that he's absolutely perfect for coming in to a MOPS meeting. He not only does talks on personal finances but he also does special talks for expectant parents at Babies R' Us and has taught Cub Scout classes (giving the kids paper money, teaching them stewardship...etc.) So he'd also be a great speaker on how parents can teach their kids (wisely) about money. So if anyone needs to fill in any holes or wants ideas for next year, give him a call or email him. His number is 256-2737 and his email is legonz@twcny.rr.com. I plan on using him next year. Wish I would have thought of him sooner but my schedule is full already.... Hope all is going well with everyone!

magnets

Hey Cory. Helen was going to look into it... I think she was going to buy the magnetic paper from Office Max or Staples. I think we are going the laminating route with TEEN MOPS (buying the magnetic roll from a craft store to stick on the back). I will ask her today what she found out from her search. Anyone else???
PS~ The pool party for the TEEN MOPS girls was really fun. xoxo We got our heads on straight with a successful S.T. meeting afterward. I'm heading over to Helens today so we can sort thru T.M. supplies and create our Welcome Bags. Love you all, praying for you too. You are some amazing Coordinators... God is def going to do some powerful works in your groups and in Mommies lives. What an adventure! xoxo
