Mommy Card

I was at the park this week because the snow has melted and it was in the 60s! (Don't get me started on this crazy fall weather we have had). While at the park I was pushing David on the swings and I started chatting with the woman next to me who was pushing her daughter. Our kids were about the same age and she was a wealth of information regarding fun things to do in the area and some resources that I was not aware of. We had a great conversation but after about 30 minutes of pushing the swing it was time to head home. The woman went to her car and came back with a business card that she handed me. She said, "here is my card, I have a ton of them so it is just easier to hand these out. If you guys want to get together give us a call." I said thanks and stuck it in my pocket. As I was driving home I started thinking more about this. I know it was an old business card that she gave me, but in a way it was her 'Mommy Card'. I have never been given a mommy card before. What a great concept! The business world finds them handy, so why not use them as mothers? After all we are in the business of raising kids. Maybe if I had a 'mommy card' I could participate in those restaurant drawings where you drop your business card in the jar in hopes of being picked for a free lunch. There could be a lot of perks to having a 'mommy card'.

If I had a 'Mommy Card' I think mine would say:
Nancy Kofford, CEO of the Kofford Family, specializes in trips to the park and lunch at Panera
To arrange a play date please call ***-***-****

Do any of you have 'mommy cards?'....if you had one what would it say?
