Re: With so many sad things going on, let's say something nice about a LIF that you met

Preshus Smurf is incredibly nice, helpful, and professional! I got my wedding invites, along with my RD invites at her store. My mom also got my shower invites there, too!

HelenZ is smart, friendly, and very easy to talk to!

Re: With so many sad things going on, let's say something nice about a LIF that you met

I've only met a handful.
Greenfreak is honest when you need it most but want it least - and she gives great advise - even when I don't heed it.
Superkat has SuperHair and is SuperSmart.
Kitty is as genuinely nice as she is smokin' hot.
Jennie is honest and surprisingly sweet.
Goldi is really one of the most 'together' people I have ever encountered.
Kevin has a wonderful daughter - proof positive he is a great dad.
Cindy is smart and caring and has amazing hair.
I know I am missing someone and it is only because it is late and night and I am half a moron.

Re: With so many sad things going on, let's say something nice about a LIF that you met

I haven't met anyone, but can I post positive attributes from what I've read?

Kara always has a logical and unbiased input.

Ophelia is always thought-provoking, and makes her opinions known, w/o them being overbearing, and is always willing to hear others out.

Davenjess and Maybeamommy have always answered my IF questions, and been interested in my updates.

Lipglossjunky is so upbeat and open-minded, she inspires me to be the same way.

Nrthshgrl is the voice of reason.

KeithHernandez is down-to-earth and I can relate.

There are SO many others, but these ladies stand out!

Re: With so many sad things going on, let's say something nice about a LIF that you met

I have met Joenick and she is such Wonderful and sweet person. She is also a VERY TALENTED woman that I deeply admire. Yay Val!!!

Kevin, Cindy and Chelsea stopped by to check out the house. They are really nice, and I hope to hang out with them some more (oh, and they have good taste in picking out cookies... )

JennasMom
We cross paths relatively often. Once the house project settles down, I hope to visit with her and Jenna once in a while. Her DD is adorable!

PrincessP
Paulette did a great job organizing and setting up last year's Holiday party in Oakdale. Since I was close personal friends with Santa, I got to spend a few minutes with her.

Eireen is such a down to earth mom and so intelligent and interesting to talk to!

Nel is my inspiration to be a dedicated and caring teacher. I feel like I have known her for years!

BabySammie is such a caring mom and fun lady.

Diana1215 and FrankiesMom are two of the most fun moms I have ever met who are devoted to their sons (both adorable!) yet are still themselves and still fun

KaraGC & DM24angel are both amazing moms who inspire me with their strength. So helpful and supportive!

Juliet (knew you before LIF ) is a reliable and trustworthy friend. We can laugh or be serious. I am so glad to have you as such an important person in Connor's life!

I have to say that ALL the girls on the Infertility board gave me so much support during a very rough time. They are the most caring, selfless group and I pray for them often!

Re: With so many sad things going on, let's say something nice about a LIF that you met

nylisa is a great person to have on your side when dealing with neighbors And she is a great Mom and person!!

Re: With so many sad things going on, let's say something nice about a LIF that you met

There is too many to name and by naming them, I think it makes others wonder about why they aren't being named. I don't have to meet them...everything from advice to helping me out when I need to, etc.

I can say that I know
...the people to call when I need to help moving something huge.
...the people I'd message if I needed legal advice
...the people I'd message if I needed work advice.
...the people I'd call that will make me walk 3+ miles when I don't want to excercise.
...the people to message when I need help being creative about something.
...the people to message when I need someone to adore my children's antics as much as I do.
...the people I message to reassure me that things with my kids will be ok.
...the people to call when I'm ready to strangle someone.
...the people to call to make me laugh so I don't cry

and

...the person to call when I need to them to be "my person".

and I met them all on LIF.

ITA.



You guys are so sweet.

And truly...right back atcha!

Through my business of Do Me A Favor, I think I have met 90% of the Parenting board mommies, some of the daddies, and even some others who purchased gifts for the babies/ children in their lives.

I honestly have to say, I have met such WONDERFUL people here on LIF.

You have all come to my home to pick up favors, and left as friends.

I have become close with several of you too (you know who you are ), and I thank LIF for bringing us together.

I look forward to meeting even more of you.
