Renata Smith will be performing with Pandora
Theatre in Vox Feminina: Mom’s the Word through May 10th. Tickets are $15. Let’s support Renata!
The fabulous Meg Ruffing then led the group in a gardening
craft. We made container herb gardens in
Mason jars, chalkboard garden stakes, and seed bombs. Make sure to check your herb gardens. They should be sprouting soon if not
already. Our seed bombs contain native
Texas wild flowers and grasses. I
believe the garden stakes that were not yet dry were placed in the MOPS closet
for pick up at the next meeting.

Cintia then led us in a wonderful devotion. She reminded us that God wants to be with us
in all moments of motherhood. She talked
about the stressful and crazy moments as mothers and what a difference finding
God’s peace can make! In her words, “Put
on the glasses of peace!”
We have two meetings left in May. Next meeting is May 9th. Purple table is up for breakfast. Summer is almost here!
