Hello neighbors, In the past, I've seen messages on the listserv about moms groups/playgroups in the neighborhood. I never paid much attention to them, not being a mom... but, how things change! Please let me know if there are any active HP groups, or if anyone is interested in starting one up - particularly moms with babies. Thanks!
