In Moms & More, Jenna enjoys the playgroups, Mom & Tot events, book club and large group events. On any given day you can find Jenna reading, serving at her church, dancing in her kitchen, taking her kids on walks to the playground, and listening to podcasts. 

Fundraising- Amy Lawler

 

Amy joined Moms & More early in 2018. Looking to dive right in and make new friends, she put her name in for a board position and became a Kids Coordinator. Amy lives in Montgomery with her husband, Aaron, 4-year-old son James, and 1-1/2-year old-daughter Tess. As a full-time stay at home mom and a full time founder and Executive Director to a local charity, everyday turns into an adventure in the Lawler house. Between dropping off and picking up donations to neighbors in need, she and her sidekicks can be found creating elaborate works of kid art, fighting off dragons and other make believe creatures around town, making rocket ships out of boxes and flying to galaxies far, far away. They also love to explore local parks, read and play at all the nearby libraries, and find unique places to visit in the area.
