Birth Mother’s Day by Family Life Coaching @ Potter’s Path
Sat 5/9, 9am
This is a day to honor the courageous stories of birth mothers on one of the most emotionally complex days of the year. Birth Mother’s Day is both beautiful and difficult. It is a day filled with love, sacrifice, grief, strength, and hope. For many birth mothers, it can also be a day that feels very lonely. This gathering was created so birth mothers have a place where they are truly seen and understood.
Survival Hike @ Revival Temple

Mon 5/11, 11am-3pm
Come out and give blood at the Farm Bureau office in Watson. All Donors Receive a Free T-Shirt.
This event is being put on by my insurance agent so figured I’d include this because Curt rocks! I definitely recommend getting a quote from him on any of your insurance needs. Been with him for years, which is rare for me and insurance. (He didn’t pay me to say this haha)
