MOPS 2017-2018 Theme: Free Indeed Every year MOPS comes up with a rallying cry – a concept that will guide our entire tribe of women for the coming year. This year, we’re digging deeper into the idea of being truly free. So here it is, all the insider information on what is guiding our […]
Last Tuesday was our first MOPS for the year. I am blessed to get to be the Discussion Group Team Leader. One of the things I have been telling my girls (the Discussion Group Leaders) is that it's the little, unexpected things they do that can help to make their ladies feel special. For the first MOPS I thought it would be a good idea to make a little gift for the moms. It takes a lot of work to get out the door with little ones, even when it's preparing to have a couple of hours of mommy only time. We have over forty ladies in our MOPS group and so I knew I couldn't do anything too complicated, especially since I didn't get to it until the Saturday before MOPS. I made a little set of magnets out of clothes pins, scrap paper, glue, and magnet strips. Then I printed off little "Welcome to MOPS" papers on card stock. It gave something to clip the magnets to and made for a really nice presentation. I found the idea here. They had a variety of ideas. I went really simply since I had so many to make. (I ended up making 54 sets, which is 270 individual magnets.) I am having the Discussion Group Leaders over later this week for an open house. I'm going to have craft stations set up so that they can choose a gift they would like to make for their ladies. Not everyone is particularly crafty and this gives them a little help in putting something together that they can pull out on whatever occasion they choose and make their ladies feel special. So check back after later in the week and I should have pictures of my ladies crafting their hearts out. The kids are coming so it will be interesting to see how much crafting gets done. At least there will be much laughter and talking!
Last month, we made this quick craft at MOPS. These elastic hair ties are great for personal use, but also make a really creative gift. Wit...
When I first told my husband I was joining MOPs, he asked me if it was some kind of cleaning group. Until the day I went to a yard sale and a MOPs mom shared what it really was with me, I had no idea either... and quite honestly, may have thought the same thing as my husband. Now that I have been a part of MOPs for a couple of years, I actually learned that it kind of is like a cleaning group... we just cleanse the soul and mind. We help other moms learn how to be better moms, stronger moms, smarter moms. My MOPs Murray Hill group has helped me several times in the past "clean" up a mental mess I was in by helping me relax, praying with me... and for me. Our MOPs Murray Hill group has been so blessed with wonderful, loving caregivers in our nursery so that we are able to meet in peace (with the children in another room). This year we decided to give our caregivers a gift that we hope will help them during these hot summers months and future months to come after those.
