well. the rain held us up a bit, and we were missing quite a few folks due to illness, but overall it was a good meeting!
Jennifer Parker from the University of Phoenix shared with us her personal story of continued education as a mother of two.
Cindy Wilkerson then encouraged us as moms to think twice and accept responsibility when we make not so great financial decisions.
We will be participating in the 2010 Kidfest, organized by the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services. The date is set for April 24th, during Child Abuse Prevention Month and will be held at the Longview Mall. We will provide information about the Longview Mothers League and hand-painting will be available for the children.
Celebrate Valentine’s Day this year by Loving a Child in need! 
We will be sending collected items and funds to Love a Child in Haiti. There is still time to donate diapers, formula, medical supplies or funds through the Longview Mothers League (make checks payable to: Love a Child). Call 903-295-0600 to drop off items by Thursday, Feb 11th (to be mailed Friday, February 12th).
Thanks and have a blessed week!
