Description

This group is based on active participation.  Moms talking with moms while reading great books.   

This is a place for moms to get their own education while connecting with others to gain a sense of community and support.

Learning is not attained by chance, it must be sought for with ardor 
and diligence.          
  
~Abigail Adams
