This Week's Speaker: Alisa Palmer-- "Training your Children to Work" "I am a writer and speaker who is passionate about intentional parenting. I believe we don't have to wait until our children are "of age" to train character, relationship skills and life skills. It is the ins and outs of the "daily grind" where we forge the character and skills in our children. I fully believe that training kids doesn't have to be like pulling teeth but should be injected with lavish amounts of creativity.  I believe that great parenting is 1 part creativity, 2 part consistency and 3 parts wisdom." This Week's Reminders We will be taking table pictures at this meeting for a MOPS directory.   We are collecting both Newborn and Size 1 diapers to donate to Robbinsdale Women's Center.  Please bring donations to our next MOPS meeting.  Friendly reminder, if you haven't already paid please bring your membership paym
