Laura~

 you are so right!!  i joined the board in jan and was a reader for quite a while and with debhorses encouragement i finally started posting and WOW!!! what a difference all of you make to me.  i know that with all the trials i have been going through, i wouldn't have made it without being part of a bigger more beautiful family as this board has become to me.   <THANK YOU!>

Well, I just know that I always go home with a "on the forum today" story to tell my room mates or boyfriend, or friends......so I like that.

I like that we are there for people when they are down, going through something really hard, or helping them celebrate something when they are at their best.  I personally appreciate all the people who contacted me after loosing my baby.  I had a lot of people share their stories, and it's nice to know that you aren't alone and that people do care, and that they want to see you through your hard times and help lift you up.  (((((((HUGS))))))))

Leann---your mom will be the one!....grandma's have braggin rights too!  lol......

I personally just love being to able to come on here and read what everyone is doing, and checking results to see who did good,
and meeting new people.  I've lived in central texas most of my life...and know alot of people, but this board allows your to meet
people you would never get to meet except by accident!  And its a great place just to go to harrass Booger of course! 
I even like Booger today..... <NOT WORTHY>

I agree with Stacie . . . I love how WE ALL go through whatever our Board Family is going through on any given day.

I love how we'll pray for someone in the drop of a hat.

I love how we'll give advice about the most obtuse of subjects.

I love how when subjects get heavy, one of us always good to jump in and say something to diffuse it!

I love that we all really WANT to be here, and that when you are gone you really feel like you were missed!

I love that when my mom and sister started talking about my shower invite list, I started rattling off screen names!

And . . .

I love that you don't judge me despite the fact that I keep crying and talking about boobs and constipation!!

Yeah, it's almost like a Sisterhood, with a couple of guys thrown in the mix.

I would like to say that I too was a reader for a long time and was very apprehensive about joining in but I
did and everyone made me feel right at home I have had the chance to meet a few of you and cant wait
till I can meet the rest of you...everyone is great and I hope that I can call you a friend
because anyone here can call me a friend anytime...

 <(' ')> <(' ')> You guys are the FIRST ones (exception with 1Tex and TR cause they are the phone calls) to hear anything and always there to listen! I feel like we all care about each other....that is more than I can say about folks I see on a regular basis. I look forward to getting on here to share everything and to read how everyone is doing. Man, you guys have helped me through some rough stuff. You have given a lot of prayers for many as well as hugs! Advice on different subjects is always a plus!! And YES! We miss you when you are gone!! I wish I lived close to each and every one of you...that would be a lot of homes...LOL I cant wait to see you guys and half the time my hubby is saying "what are you laughing about now?" Also, if any of you get to meet Jeff, he is learning screen names....So, dont be offended if I introduce you that way!! He gets a kick out of some things like the Kittehs....When I giggle, he is looking over my shoulder!!  >angel<

I've said this more than once....

A combo of the "godfather" with a dash of "Green Fried Tomatoes"....perhaps some "Pretty Woman" and a smidge of "overboard".....

That's us in a nutshell. >:D >:D >:D
