Ever since I became Mommy, I’ve made friends with a lot of other Mommies. It’s really wonderful how we know each other. Via forums, chats, blogs etc. Some we’ve never met, some we meet, some remains online friends.
When Mommy meets/talks, they’ve got a lot of things to share though they only see/talk to each other the first time.
From my observation, here are a list of things we usually talk about, which is why makes us all becoming friends so easily 🙂
