Yes, you read that right! Since becoming a blogger a little over a year ago I have made some of the best friendships one can imagine without ever meeting someone. I've joined numerous mommy and review blogging sites to get my blog out in the public eye...what I didn't expect was to meet some wonderful women while doing it!
I may or may not have mentioned that I use Skype a lot...it's a chat/IM program, that's how I talk to my bestest of blogging friends. I love that if I'm having a rough day or an exciting day I can jump on Skype and 9 times out of 10 there is at least one person on there that is willing to listen to my sad story, or boast about something new my kids have done.
I want to take this time to thank those ladies...I don't have a lot of in real life friends, so these gals are awesome to me! I hope to be able to meet most if not all of them at BlogHer10 this year!
Melissa of Outnumbered 3 to 1, she worked her butt off for our B2S event. Actually her posting on Extraordinary Mothers about wanting to do an event is what got us starting to talk! She's awesome, we talk multiple times a day about anything and everything.
Jennifer (Speedy) of 80MPH Mom is another awesome gal! She's sweet, funny and kind. She's always there to listen (or read). While I was pregnant with Jaxon she texted me multiple times asking if I was ok when I hadn't signed online in awhile...even afterwards she would text to ask how I was doing. If something was happening with me that I had to go to the hospital or something, she would be one of the 1st I would text so she could update everyone else on Skype.
Ryann of A Working Blogging Mommy I've known her online for years now...we were a member of an old mommy board before either of us started blogging. She's such a goof, I tend to call her a dork more than once a day! We plan on doing a Christmas Event soon (so look for it lol) Our girls are close in age so we have quite a bit in common to talk about.
Paige of The Nurse Mommy, she's another one I've known from the same mommy board as Ryann. She's one of the sweetest women I have ever met. She even sent some outfits for Jaxon when we were hard on cash before. She also has the cutest little boy (besides my own 2 lol) who I love hearing all about!
There are actually many many more gals I heart but it's too many to list all their good qualities! Erin, Christine, Andrea, and Casey! You all rock! I'm sorry if I forgot anyone!
Bear With Me
I'm working and working on reviews and giveaways that need done. I have a lot of stuff going on at home with the kids' and their school with meetings. Please be patient and know that I'm not gone. Please keep checking back for new stuff!

Aww, that's so sweet Jackie! I heart you too ;)
I feel the same way. I have met some amazing women since I started to blog. All of my friends irl have families as do I, so it's not easy to get together, and I'm not a big telephone person, I can't sit and talk for 1/2 hour or more to one person very day.
awww I heart your face ya dork!!! Cute cute post! muahh!
Awww - how very sweet of you to post about all of us! Thank you for your kind words - you are a sweetie too. How could I not wonder what was going on when you were having a baby! It was fun "being there" with you, and fun to meet the little one!
I heart you too sweetie!
Isn't it great that we can create such awesome friendships through blogging? I think we're pretty dang lucky.
