Featured Response 💬 

“I have a girl group from high school that we meet up every couple months and especially around birthdays. Sometimes with families, sometimes just us. Then I was also lucky enough to marry into some stellar sister in laws and we see each other almost weekly- to the point where if I miss a week I miss them so bad! ”

- Community Mom

That sounds amazing—you’ve got the best of both worlds with your girl group and those built-in sister hangouts! It’s so special when family becomes your go-to crew too. -Danielle 😊
