Never Have I Ever… Moms United

There are so many things you envision in your life. But it always seems that life has its very own agenda. No matter how much we will something to happen, it appears the plan has already been laid and that things truly do happen for a reason. Below you will find a small handful of moms playing an age old — and wildly entertaining game of “Never Have I Ever: Mom Style.” These wonderful moms are a part of what has become a Facebook family. These are moms all over the world united under one title: Mom. There are 300 or so moms in this amazing group on Facebook. Over the last 2 years they have grown together and supported each other without many of them ever meeting. They do this because they are moms and they know that moms must always stick together.
