Topic: Who would you like to thank? Posted: 16 February 2010 at 3:27pm |
I recall Mel posted a thread on this a few years back and Ive been meaning to start it again, as there are a few people I want to thank .. so feel free to pass out bouquets as well should you wish.
I’d like to thank …
Pepsi – For all the time she has put in setting up my new blog (and all the time she is still spending on it)!
Kylie – For agreeing to come up to Auckland in June and giving us Auckland Mums such an amazing deal.
Rach, Blondy, Fliss, Maya and Co – For constantly coming to the rescue! I don’t know how many times Ive sent out an sos and had one of you turn up on my doorstep with whatever I needed a the time – so
and finally
mrsmojo - just because  lol, but really its because even though you arent around the board as much as before you always seem to be there with amazing words of encouragement just at the right time.

Awwww, sweet idea. For me:
All the ladies on the clomid boards, for all your incredible support through what was a really tough time, and for being nice and still letting me join in now I'm not one of you.
The ladies on the August 10 thread, because it's so nice to be able to reassure myself that everything's going OK!
Everyone who posted or PMd congrats when we finally got our BFP, you guys made me feel so special  (Even the stalkers I didn't know I had - Rosie!!)
Becs, for sending an awesome SS pressie, and being a very special OB friend.

I really would like to thank everyone, I think everyone brings something different to this forum and keeps it entertaining and inspiring
But there are a "special few "
Fattartsrock , cos years ago on another forum she told me about this site in the first place
Emma and the rest of the admin team , for doing a great job keeping it going
Bex cos you are a honey
Minik8te , cos when I got my BFP with Ty yours was the first response, and the fact that you were so happy for me , when you had been trying for longer was humbling , actually, all the girls who were in the 2ww thread with me , you made an anxious two weeks each month a lot more entertaining
Pepsi, cos you rock and you support my love for Bob :-P
All the lovely girls on my due date thread, I don't post so often but I do lurk a lot and I love seeing how your babies are getting on
Anouska, cos again you are a sweetheart, and occasionally you bless us with photos of mr hot brother *wink wink *
Deb , just cos , "love , means never having to give a reason " haha !! scared yet ?
Essiebear, cos you are always so considerate and always ask how Im doing , I think your lovely
Sheena and Amber ,cos they are "my girls " and id be lost without them to talk /vent to
and finally to all the people that actually find my lame sense of humor funny
oh , and Kylie, all the fellow Kellys, Daizy for just being you
I know i've missed heaps of you out , so I will sing to everyone , a song :-D
Thank you for being a friend
Traveled down the road and back again
your heart is true you're a pal and a confidant
I'm not ashamed to say
I hope it always will stay this way
My hat is off, won't you stand up and take a bow
And if you threw a party
Invited everyone you knew
You would see, the biggest gift would be for me
and the card attached would say,
Thank you for being a friend
Thank you for being a friend
Thank you for being a friend
Thank you for being a friend
If it's a car you lack
I'd surely buy you a cadillac
Whatever you need, anytime of the day or night
I'm not ashamed to say
I hope it always will stay this way
My hat is off, won't you stand up and take a bow
And when we both get older
With walking canes and hair of gray
Have no fear, even though it's hardly here
I will stand real close and say,
Thank you for being a friend

I really want to send a big thanks to the planning and ttc girls, and the waiting to ttc ladies had no idea when I started that thread it would be so well received.
My fellow charters - Shezzy, freckle, melnel, mollymoo, tarns who help make sense of all this craziness and whose support and encouragement keep me going each month.
I guess to all the OB members I've been a member for a long time, and I'm not even a mum, everyone has always been welcoming and supportive I hope OB continues to be a welcoming place.
There are dozens of other wonderful OB'ers I've had the pleasure of meeting IRL and they're all super lovely ladies.
Too many names to mention and don't want to offend by leaving one off, everyone is really lovely. Even the ladies I don't agree with your alternative point of view helps me to think critically about my own stance, one day I'll be a better mum/parent because of it. Children don't come with a manual and we are all learning as we go.
