I don't want to seem crazy eager to other Moms, but it's so hard to contain my excitement at meeting a gal who's fun/savvy/intelligent/not weird/doesn't let her kid hit mine, etc., etc. Sigh. I'll keep checking back to see if anyone's figured it out. Or better yet- anyone wanna come play in a Chicago playlot? Happy SITS day! Keely I’ve been grappling with this issue SO MUCH.

Happy SITS day!

I SO know what you mean about being afraid of being a mom-stalker! I was at a playground once and my son was actually interested in watching this little boy who was following us all around, sliding and swinging with us. My son was doing so well interacting and the other mom was doing such a great job encouraging them both. I really wanted to ask her to get together again … but I thought that would be weird … so I didn’t. Well, now that I know, CLEARLY, we are not the only moms who do this. Maybe we both want to connect and are too afraid of what it looks like? Eek. NOW that’s scary. Happy SITS potluck!

At least you know she’s a mom, right? That should lessen some of the uncertainty … although I’m a little bummed to hear that ‘dating’ continues past your single years!

Something tells me she will be back. Next time, have a pen handy. Maybe like you she is writing on her blog and telling the world what a great person she met at the park the other day.
