TIPS FROM LAKE MURRAY MOMS
When leaving the grocery store, put all COLD groceries in the front seat and the rest in the trunk. If your child has a meltdown on the way home, you can tend to the COLD foods more easily and deal w/ the rest of the groceries later.
This helpful tip has been brought to you by Lake Murray Moms. We are a local mom’s group that provides support for all moms in the Chapin and surrounding Lake Murray area.
Thursday April 1st, we will have our monthly meeting/ social (at the Chapin Chamber). We also plan a monthly night out and play dates every week. We invite moms with children of all ages to visit our group. For more information, go to www.lakemurraymoms.com “We’ll put the wind back in your sails.”
