For those of you who don't know, I became part of an online group through iVillage when I was pregnant with Ashley. I met many wonderful women, all online, who were also expecting in August 2008. Some of us, like me, went on to give birth in July, most welcomed their darling "honeybees" in August, and a few went into September. No matter when our little ones entered the world, many of us formed a close online friendship and even became 'friends' on Myspace and/or Facebook. Last year, some of us participated in a Christmas card exchange and sent cards and/or photos. This year, we decided to do it again. I loved receiving the different cards and pictures this year and wanted a way to remember them all. Hence, my picture for today. It was so much fun sending out and receiving these cards. I did this many years ago with the online group I was part of when Robbie was an infant. I still have several of the pictures I received (and am even still in contact with a couple of the ladies I met online at this time!). It will be fun watching all the 'honeybees' grow each year for those of us who continue.
