I want some Catholic Friends. Some ladies to share the ups and downs of HS with. Maybe trade some recipes, or talk about quilting or liturgical year studies or what saint we should study with what time period. I would love to have some friends over 40, who homeschool, who like to crochet or cross stitch or quilt. Who would like to share about HS and life. Does anyone know of a Catholic on line HS support group they could direct me to?

Aww thanks Michaela,
Yes! the forum here is fantastic ! I was hoping for something more private. I doubt the entire forum needs to hear what we are having for dinner or the fit my 10 year old had when doing math today. I was just hoping for a smaller group to share daily with, the little stuff you know? If anyone wants to write me, please do so privately through Private Message (PM.)

Susan Marie,

I understand your wish for a smaller group of friends...but I do encourage you to linger and read, because we actually do share what we're having for dinner, where we buy toys and treasures, how we cope with homeschooling and our daily lives, etc., and more!

I'd especially recommend the prayer section, because we post about all prayer needs, large and small. Lost sunglasses, ill relatives, special events...it's all there. We'll be happy to pray for your intentions, too.

Welcome!

Thanks for the Welcome Chari ! I don't have any Ca†holic Mom friends IRL, but I do see lots of Moms at CCD. lol. Our parish has a Mom's group for preschoolers, but my kids are past that now.

You certainly find the support here, but a further suggestion is when someone posts something that particularly resonates with you pm them, and you never know a friendship may develop there. Yes it does mean being a little bold and hoping they don't mind, but I've tried it a few times and no-one has ever rebuffed overtures.
