Flower Mound Moms and More

Flower Mound Moms and More is a Facebook group created and led by Kris Wise. The group is a resource for local moms (and more) who need recommendations for trusted tradespeople, items to borrow, informational ideas and just general advice. Members post garage sales, community events and fun memes. And absolutely no snarkiness is allowed.  The group was created to be supportive and uplifting. As Kris says, “only puppies and rainbows” allowed.
