Praying for Lauren

About 4-5 years ago, when I got engaged I decided to check out The Knot, if you aren't familiar with it, it's a wedding planning website. On there they have message boards where you can talk to anyone about every aspect of weddings. They also have monthly boards, where you could meet other brides that were getting married the same month as you. Little did I know that when I logged on to The October 2008 Knot board, would I form relationships with these other girls that at the time I had no clue who they were. 4 years later and we all still share an amazing bond. We still talk to one another everyday, some of us have formed friendships off of the board and get together. We've been through a lot together. Ups and down in marriages, divorces, and the most special the birth our children and our pregnancies.

Like I said this is an AMAZING group of women. Sure, we are a group of women and don't always agree, but in the end when one of us needs another, support, anything, we are there for one another. I'm still amazed everyday at the bond we share.

One of our members, Jackie, who blogs at Meeting Lauren, a blog about the joys of expecting a daughter who happens to have Down Syndrome, recently gave birth to her adorable and amazing little girl Lauren, in fact she just turned a month old!

Unfortunately, this precious little girl has to have open heart surgery next week. Please support and think of Jackie and her family at this time. If you want steal the code and put the badge that Margaret from Mind Full Mommy made this adorable badge!
