Unfortunately today is one of those days, you kinda sorta wish never came about. I just want you all to know that we all are a Special Bunch. I find it amazing how ladies who never met one another can have so much love for each other. I got to thinking today, how I actually spend more time communicating with you all more then with my own family (not by my choice). It is a wonderful feeling to know there is somewhere to go and you are loved unconditionally! I love you all

I was talking to my mom about what happened & I said "I may never meet any of those ladies in my lifetime, but I've shared a very big part of my life with each of them & for us to lose a friend that we had was very very devistating." & she understood
I'm so happy that we all have eachother
You all are my friends, & I'm so happy that I got to share in your lives

I totally agree. I know I don't contribute as much as I should but I feel like you girls are all people I actually know and I really genuinely like every one of you.
I know what you mean Kate when you say its hard to explain it to other people. You're all like girlfriends that I can catch up with after a few weeks of busy life and there is no high maintenance kinda stuff
I cannot believe that Maggie has gone. It's just so heartbreaking. I was just thinking about her excitement over the holiday to her parents house.I cant stop thinking about her little girls and her husband... I have to go and have a good cry I think.

Randomly lurking. I know Melissa from when we were both TTC, and I saw this post about this woman, and I was stopped in my tracks. So young, such precious babies...I did not know her at all, but I agree with everyone else that the boards are great.

On a personal note for Melissa, you are such a nice person. You have always been one of the first to offer congrats, a prayer for bad or good times, and you genuinely seem to think about everyone else first, even people you haven't met in person.

Hope you guys didn't mind the intrusion of your board, but this really was a heartwrenching few posts to read.

I don't know Maggie or her family, but all of them are in my prayers.

I have been waiting all my life...




The best kisses ever...

You know, I talk about you guys all the time to everyone. I feel like I know you guys too. And I love the way no one really gets offended. Then if we do it only last for a few seconds and then its over with.

You guys are the best people to be pg with, I know I have said this before and I sound like a broken record. But you all controlled your hormones levels so well. You guys really proved that it can be done. (((((((((((BIG HUGS)))))))))))))

While there are some that I feel closer too, I do care for each and every one of you. I am a guarded person. It takes a bit for me to let people "in." kwim?

I also would not know what to do without this board. I would be lost.

I just thought I would say I think you are a great group of ladies thanks for letting me be part of your group even though my situation is a little different then yours and I know not everyone can be that accepting of it but for the most part most of you put the fact that I am a mom first. Thanks!

Melissa sweetie, you know how much I you!

I appreciate how you all have let me become part of this group. You've been the best. It's really hard to try to be part of a BI group when you are adopting! I wish I could have been pregnant here with you all.

I agree! I wish we could all get PG at the same time again because I had such a wonderful time with you all in the past (and of course now!). Its kinda scary thinking I'll have to meet new ladies to share such a big part with. I love you all! I know we have had some "tiffs" in the past, but I really do love each and every one of you ladies. I agree with Kate, some people just don't get it. I was afraid DH would think I was crazy for crying that Maggie passed away, but he knew we all were close on here. I hope to know you ladies for years and years to come!!

I am so glad to be a part of this group. I feel so lucky. When I joined a little over a year ago, I never would have guessed how close we would all be today. And I never would have imagined how this would feel, to lose someone like this. I just haven't really known what to say here lately. It just feels so strange. A big empty place.

I can't imagine my pregnancy without you ladies. I can't imagine the first 6 months of this new part of my life without you ladies. I LOVED being able to walk through everything at the same time. Whenever we conceive number 2, I doubt that DI board will be able to compare. When I have questions, I'll probably come here!

No offense to anyone else, but I think we have the 3 best hostesses possible. I'm so glad everything stayed the same. I agree with Melissa, about our Melissa. You are the GREATEST. You are always the first to help and lend your advice on any issue. You aren't afraid to say what you are thinking, and I love that part of you! Kate, you are so caring and even as a first time Mama yourself, you always found time to be encouraging to us, and still do. Even though you are just as new to this, you are still so helpful to us other first-timers. And Tanya. If there's anyone who has the answers, it's you! I tell people about you, and they are amazed. And to be honest, even a year later, you still amaze me! You are one awesome lucky woman!

And I feel so lucky to have all of you as my friends, even if I never meet you all face to face.
