I received free products in order to host a National Mom’s Nite Out Party. The opinions expressed are my own.
Clearly I am in need of a Mom’s Night Out. I recently made a big mistake. I try to always be honest (it’s maybe even a flaw that I have since I may be overly honest sometimes) and here is a confession. I was selected by MomSelect to host a Moms’ Nite Out party. It doesn’t get much better than having a bunch of goodies sent to your house for your and your friends. But here’s the thing. I wrote down the wrong date for National Moms Night Out. I had emails and a print out…and I still got it all wrong. I missed the deadline and I feel terrible about that. It bothers me so much when I get dates wrong. Eek.
Let’s face it ladies, we need to schedule Date Nights with our spouse and Moms Night Out with our friends. Yes, these are events that need to be scheduled on your calendar which means planning goes in to these activities (and trust me when I say you need to write down the correct date or you may just miss all your friends by being a day early or a day late). Getting out of the house and interacting with adults is good for us.
5 Reasons Why We Should be Celebrating Moms Night Out
* Friendships blossom over time. Nights out with friends turn initially hesitant conversations into ones where we don’t hold back. We talk about are dreams and struggles with other people who simply understand.
* Peer support groups help your mental health. Being a mom can make us feel like we are losing our sanity or push us to the edge of depression. Your coping skills increase when you participate in a peer group.
* You need to laugh. Chances are high that your group of friends will provide you with comic relief.
* Friends support you through the good and the bad. You never know when you may need a friend’s shoulder to cry on or when you can be someone’s rock when they are down.
* Friends can help bring out the best in you. They can remind you not to take life too seriously, which we tend to do when we are caught up in the moment.
Like seasons, friends change. It make take awhile to accept that as a good thing, but the changing of friends is part of growing up. Your circle make decrease in size, but increase in value. Life is a beautiful mess made better with friendship.
