First Ladies of the Hillside, it is where we reside. We come from all different backgrounds with beautiful souls!
We love our children, art, community, and play all the roles! Many faces from worldly places.
We wish to learn, we wish to grow. We love to teach and love to show, what it is that the First Ladies know!
So bring your child, bring your brain, care for the children so we don’t go insane.
Fresh and whole food from the grain. Step by step so it’s not such a strain.
Arts and crafts with many laughs!
First Ladies of the Hillside is where we reside, but not where we remain!
