My mom friends show up in ways that my friends without kids can't. I'm grateful for them.

When I became a mom, some friendships got lost along the way, but my new-to-me mom village gathered round. My new group wasn't filled with the women I expected it to be. My other friends had mostly come from school or work. These new friends were people I'd never crossed paths with before, thrown together by circumstance. It was wonderful to be amongst so many different women who shared a common bond.
