President’s Greeting from the Heart
Be My Valentine
February
Also in this month of love and thoughtfulness, wouldn’t it
be nice if you had a heart to heart chat with someone
you care deeply about? Maybe that person is your
hubby. Perhaps, she is your teenage child, mother-in-law,
neighbor, or, best yet, someone you know well or even
just met in SAAMOM! I encourage you to reach out to
that person in any way you can. Sometimes a quick
phone call,
email, hug, or
lunch date
can change
the course of
someone’s
day, month,
or even year!

Anastasia Bernal, Editor
Hello and Happy February! As I help my three
children sign, seal, and deliver their valentines this
month, I can’t help but think how the SAAMOM
board and its committees are the HEART of our amazing
organization. They design your programs, book speakers
for the events you attend, plan and organize seasonal
parties, write and design the newsletter that arrives in your
inbox each month, match you with a big or little sister,
organize the Clothing and Equipment Sales that help you
make or save money, and , the list goes on and on.
Without them, SAAMOM would hardly have a beating
pulse. So isn’t it sweet that February is the time to elect
“fresh blood” to our organization. At the general
meeting, we will elect our 2010 Board and Committee
Chairs. I invite you to come to the meeting so your vote
counts. I also invite you to consider making 2010 the year
you share your time and talents helping other parents
having and raising their twins, triplets and more! What an
easy and fun way to meet others! Remember, you MAY
co-chair most positions. Also, if you are interested in
running, but cannot make the meeting, that is
okay! Simply email Sheri or Tiffany with your
interests at membership@saamom.org. For a
complete list and description of positions, please
see page 6.
Love,
Erin ■

There have been some questions and concerns
regarding who’s information is and
who’s information isn’t put in the newsletter.
If you have selected “no access”

your information is not pulled

A gentle reminder to
those of you who are
big sisters: please call
your little sister. Life is
hectic no matter how
old your multiples
are but, hearing from a “survivor” of those first
12 months (YES! There is light at the end of the
tunnel!) can make a huge difference for
a new mother of multiples. Take that
Oprah Magazine headline, “YOU ARE
STRONGER THAN YOU THINK” and tell that to
your little sister. She might just need some words
of encouragement! ■

January Meeting Recap
We had a blast last month getting wonderful insight
on SEX from our very own SAAMOM member,
Sara Oswalt. She spoke to our group about making
time for our most important intimate relationships. But
more importantly, she showed us there’s more to intimacy than sex. She even answered some really
good questions. Thanks for everyone’s participation!

TMOM Convention 2010
Are you ready for mother of all MOMs Nights Out? Texas Mothers of Multiples
will celebrate their 37th Annual Convention in Dallas on APRIL 22-25, 2010 and the
theme is MOMs Night Out. The Garland Area Mothers of Twins Club is hosting at the
Radisson Dallas East (11350 LBJ Freeway @ Jupiter Road, Dallas, Texas 75238,
214-341-5400 or 1-800-346-0660). It is a wonderful facility with a great room rate of
$95 for a quad. The registration fee is $30 before March 15 so hurry and get that form
in. The late fee goes up to $50 this year.
The Garland MOTC has planned a great Convention. Activities include a shopping trip, dinner and
rodeo, a siblings panel luncheon and, of course, the TMOM installation dinner themed Diva Divine Dinner.
Workshops include Play Therapy, Organization, First Aid, Self Confidence in Children, Elementary to
Jr. High Transition, College, NOMOTC, Make –n-Take Floozie Koozies, Decorating Children’s Rooms, and
Photographing Children. In short, you can learn a lot at Convention plus enjoy a relaxing weekend only
having to dress yourself. We sometimes describe it as a great big slumber party. It is fun, fun, fun.
There are several new features to Convention this year. First, there will be Higher Order Multiples
Luncheon on Friday. These MOMs asked and Garland NOMOTC delivered. Hopefully we will have
enough MOMs attend to make it a permanent feature to Convention. Also, the hotel is offering TMOM
attendees the opportunity to pre-purchase the full breakfast buffet for $7 each morning. The $7 includes
beverages. The usual price is $9.99. One of the traditions for Convention is to purchase your TMOM
badge and add a disc each time you attend Convention. This year you will need to pre-order your disc.
There is a section for that on the registration form.
If you are interested in attending this year’s TMOM Convention and would like to know about it, contact
me at saamomjulie@msn.com. Let me know as soon as possible if you are interested so that I can help
you find a roommate and get the carpools together.
Thanks!

March is for SAAMOM Mommy-Preneures
Calling all mommy-preneuers! If you have a home-based business, business-on-the-side or simply want to
promote your “other job”, SAAMOM is giving you the platform to showcase your work!
SAAMOM invites you to take part in our mommy-preneuer event
coming up at our March general meeting. From 6:30 - 7:30 PM,
we will have tables which you may set up with your promotional
material. Whether you do photography, make hair bows, or sell
anything - books to hair bows, we would love to see it and shop
it! We hope this is just another way we can support one another!
If you are interested in having a booth, please contact
me at president@saamom.org. The last half of the
meeting will be SAAMOM’s Ages and Stages Roundtable
Discussions! We’ll make it easy to find mommies whose kiddos are
the same age. Share the joys and challenges of expecting or
raising twins, triplets and/or more!
Please join us!
