"Sorry Joette, I didn't see that last response, I can do either date, I prefer a day time meeting however."
"Anyone care to try for another date? I'd really like to have a chance to meet everyone here. I'm pretty flexible so I don't care about dates."
"Sounds good to me, my husbands schedule is so up in the air, I'll probably have to bring the little ones regardless. So, either day/time...I just ask that we try for a kid friendly location, like sweet treats in Baxter or something?"

Hi to all!
My name is Leslie, I'm a SAHM of two beautiful little girls. One that was homebirthed just two weeks ago. And I will say the most wonderful experience I've ever had! Truly amazing. We will be starting our homeschooling adventure this fall for the first time and would love to meet some other moms starting too. We live in the Fort Mill area and are in search of other like minded mommas out there that I can swap ideas and thoughts about a holistic life with. I hope to meet some new moms soon!

When you get a chance (I'm sure you are busy!), post an introduction in…"
