Shout Out...

To my "loopies"! I have a group of women friends that I met online in 1998. We all had babies in August or September of that year and have remained in contact the entire time, although sporadically at times. There were days in the early years when my email box was constantly full of email from these ladies. The threw me a virtual baby shower for the Princess, complete with gifts they sent and I opened while we were online. On of the ladies was on the short list of people we called from the hospital when the Princess was born, she spread the word to the rest of them. We've lived through a suicide of one of our loopies, troubled marriages, life threatening health-situations, new babies, teenagers, an international adoption, etc. I've met one of them in person when she had a layover here and I drove like a mad woman to spend 30 minutes at the airport with her! I just recently(yesterday) discovered that one of them has been reading my blog and another will be stopping by soon so I wanted to say "hey" and I love you girls!
