Mom Daily
Mark your calendars
It's going to be a busy fall!
We've got several fun events lined up for you already, moms.
Here's what's cooking:
-- This Thursday, please join us at 9 a.m. for a special momaha.com play date at the Omaha Children's Museum. I'm really excited about this one.
We'll have donuts and juice from No Frills Supermarkets, and Clifford the Big Red Dog will make an appearance!
You'll have to pay to get into the museum, but admission to the Clifford exhibit will be waived. And you'll get to enjoy the museum for an hour before it opens to the public. Not bad!
RSVP to me at vdaehn@owh.com by Wednesday. » more

Really good books
