Keep looking!!!!!
It is really difficult to fit in with the 20 somethings at our age; I'm 40 as well. My husband and I moved to a small town in WV shortly after adopting our sib group of 4. It did take me awhile to find other moms in my age range, but they are there. It also took me awhile to find moms that didn't have a bias against my kids once they found out their circumstances. Just keep looking. The park idea is great, I would also try parent and child swim classes, tumbling, and any other toddler activity you can find. Call your local YMCA, YWCA, colleges and park services and read your local paper. It will get easier as your child gets older, and your child becomes involved in more activities. (I meet more moms through my 5 and 6 year olds than through my three and four year olds). When I finally began meeting moms closer to my age, they too were delighted to find they weren't the only ones! We are out here, you just need to find us!
