Compliment a WCer!

[HoneySpider]

Because it's ok to talk about people if you're saying something nice

travelbug, you always have such an upbeat and positive attitude - you seem to truly enjoy life even when it's not perfect. I think that's really admirable

ewall I love your posts - they are a combination of wit, humor, and true randomness. I love your unpredictability.

[bk1]

No matter what MrsMB is posting about she always makes me happy. She is such a positive light in our group. I feel so lucky to have her around.

[bk1]

And I really admire awick14 for her strength. She has been through so many things and I feel like even if she gets down she always has it in her to work through things and build everything back up. She really inspires me to continue working on getting better and healing.

I'm not good with words....HoneySpider, your strength is amazing, knowing about the losses you've suffered you have the strength and love start a organization to help comfort others who have also suffered loss, I think I would have shut down. You are amazing.

Gosh, you know how to make me feel all special and stuff...especially when I feel I've been cranky!

I will copy HoneySpider on ewall - She does have flair and wit with her posting. I feel I would like her IRL.

bk1 I feel you are super responsible with your money.....if you aren't you sure have me fooled! I feel like you are such a warrior getting out there/out and about even when you don't feel good.

HoneySpider She's pretty much all awesome....just needs a little less orange in her life ha! Seriously, she's always giving to others!

katespade Clearly has great taste in celebrity crushes and great style all around.  

amaranth We're buds! She knows I heart her!

wanderingenough She knows just exactly how to talk me off a ledge and is overall cool in general!

@moonbeam Has a great taste in due dates

rockinrobyn She was my SS last year. From her Christmas card, I can tell you this will be a cute baby! She and her husband are so cute!

katiek I think she is the most precious thing...her and her cute family. She is also very crafty...which makes me jealous.

luv2rn4fun SOOOOOO positive!!! Our beliefs line up very closely so she's always been a good sounding board!

awick14 She has such a sweet heart

[luv2rn4fun]

HoneySpider- So strong and inspirational! I don't know how you have managed to keep making good and being positive after all you have gone through.  You truly are an inspiration and I am amazed at how you have given back to help so many women, myself included! 

awick14- I heart you friend! You have been dealt an incredible amount of hardship, not just in your journey to have kids but also with finances etc, and you continue to make and see the best of life. I love how you and your DH have really leaned into each other these past couple years and continue to just enjoy life in the midst of such heartache. I will also never forget how much you were here for me in our journey and the kindness and thoughtfulness in making C his first Santa hat. You are truly one of a kind and I'm so thankful for you and wishing you all the best!

MrsMB- Always positive and knows exactly what to say in offering so much support, especially this past year and things with my mom.  So thankful for our friendship and knowing I can always come to you for solid advice!

bk1- You are such an amazing mom to G! I love seeing updates and how much you are truly just enjoying and embracing motherhood! It's been a fun year seeing our little babies grow together! Keep it up mama- you are a rockstar! I also love how you are intentional and really love to spend quality time with your DH...this is something we both really need to work on (we're getting better but it's been hard with C, especially not having any help).

amaranth- You are a rockstar too! I am always in awe of your house projects, homeschooling, and everything else you do on top of taking care of M and work! Also, you are seriously one of the cutest pregnant mamas I know!

katespade- You have been through so much and you just keep powering through with such a great attitude!  I also love seeing your house updates and your visions for your new home!  Like you taste and style!

travelbug- Ditto HoneySpider...so positive and always enjoying life!

ewall- I'm amazed at how well you have handled everything with work, especially having to travel so much!  You are great (and seem to enjoy) at what you do and you are a rockstar mama as well!  I think we would totally hit it off IRL.

wanderingenough- You have such a beautiful family and are doing such a great job in these early weeks of motherhood, even when things have been tough.  I'm also amazed that you have managed to get back to crossfit so quickly!  Way to go!

[awick14]

HoneySpider- thanx for making this thread, it made my day. I love how you have continued to support other woman/families who have had losses by starting TTH. And just being an amazing friend.

bk1- you always seem to have it together even when you say you don't. You also seem good with your finances, with everything you've done in the last few years.

MrsMB- I'll agree with everyone else on how positive you always are. You've been an amazing friend/sounding board for me. You are an amazing friend.

katespade- I love your style, you always seemed dressed so pretty. I wish i could dress like you. I also like how you seem to always be positive about your disease and you try to always rise above it.

katiek- you and your family are so cute. I am jealous of your diy/crafty skills.

luv2rn4fun- your such an inspiration. When I started running you always help me continue with it even when I wasn't doing well with it. You also have such a positive outlook on everything. You've also been a great support through my losses.

I just wanted to add that reading this post made me cry this morning. I really do love you all.

[wanderingenough]

luv2rn4fun - I'm always impressed at your ability to build people up!

[travelbug]

HoneySpider You made my whole day. Thank you so much for those sweet and kind words. They truly mean so much to me <3

[travelbug]

bk1 I love how involved you are with your In-laws and your family. It really is so awesome to see!

pooh8402 All your outfits are so cute and put together I wish I had your fashion sense

luv2rn4fun Thanks for your kind words. You're just so thoughtful <3 I love your never ending persistence to encourage people and always be there for them!

[pooh8402]

This is such a sweet thread. I'll participate later when I've got my computer in front of me and the baby is in bed.

[katespade]

I love everything about this thread.
I promise I'm going to come back and do mine once I'm done writing papers that are due tonight.

[ewall]

I've been traveling today, but I'm coming back to this thread!!!

[ewall]

HoneySpider Aww, thanks! Sometimes I worry that maybe I'm too flippant in my posting, but I truly care about the ladies here on the WC I'm so flattered to be called witty. I appreciate your continued "leadership" of this board and I am truly thankful for the work that you are doing with TTH.

luv2rn4fun I appreciate that I can bounce any ideas off of you and that we are often "in the thick of it" together. Bring on toddlerhood.

katespade I love your energy toward the new house and DIY. I was never that much of a go-getter with my own home.

MrsMB has the patience of a saint with her new hires and prospective hires. I get the sense that you provide great guidance to them.

bk1 I agree with awick, I feel like you always have it together! Like you are nailing it in the wife, SAHM, daughter, sister roles.

wanderingenough I appreciate your attempts to keep the board on track with our H&F goals, haha.

@emtmissy I am always amazed at how much fun time you and your H manage to spend together. You two seem to share so many fun adventures...cruising, wine tasting.

travelbug I agree, you are such a positive spirit! I hope you have many great things in your future! (Sorry, I'm feeling relatively old compared to you!)

@moonbeam I appreciate how you keep the board going when we're slow! And you keep fighting the good fight against your ILs and mom.

suzv I'm so glad you came back!

amaranth you have taken on so much within the past year or so and you are handling all of it with grace.

awick14 I just think you are the sweetest thing and I want so many great things for you!

[pooh8402]

HoneySpider and awick14, ditto the others that your strength through adversity is what I admire about you both.

I pink puffy heart all of the SEC football fans on this board. It makes talking sports fun!

katespade, I love your sense of style and all the work you're doing to your house!

MrsMB, like the others said, you're so positive and funny and I've always enjoyed reading your posts.

luv2rn4fun, I love that you always remember to comment to everyone and encourage them, and no one is forgotten or ignored. That is very thoughtful, and something I aspire to. another woman with amazing strength.

amaranth, you're so stinking cute and I love how you've put your heart into your work and into raising your baby.

bk1, I think you are a rockstar for gutting and redoing your house, and staying positive through all of that! and being an awesome mama in the meantime!

katiek, you and your husband and Milo are adorable. just adorable.

travelbug, ditto the others! of course, anyone who loves traveling loves life!

@emtmissy, you and your H seem like a really fun couple to hang out with! and along with awick14, I'm sure we could swap some emergency war stories!

[amaranth]

I sometimes hate doing these because I'm so worried I will forget someone I love, or miss something obviously deserving of a compliment. SOo, I hope I don't do that because everyone here is great.

suzv  I have loved having you post on the board that past several months. I think you add good support to everyone here Also, you're stunning. 

ewall I will echo the others. I love how you just slip in and out of threads discretely, but drop awesome posts. 

melb Your southern drawl online cracks me up almost daily. Usually the laughter is needed. Thank you.

HoneySpider I am truly and honestly in awe of your ability to stay positive to everyone in all situations, even when your own life has been so rough these past years. I wish more people had someone like you in their lives, because the world would be so much better off. 

pooh8402 This is a recent thing for you, but I really like how you're fully a devoted adoring mother, but still value your work and seem to thrive in both. I love seeing positive examples of working moms and so far you seem to be rocking it!

katespade I think you're so awesome. It's great that you've gone back to school to continue pursuing excellence and what you want to do, when so many people would be scared or just complain about college regret. Instead, you just went for it. The same could be said for travelbug coming up. You're also going back to school and just moving forward instead of focusing on any regrets or how hard it may be.

luv2rn4fun I like how you've been more human lately. You used to seem like you never had a complaint in life, and now you do, but you're still positive and encouraging. Now THAT is what proves strong character.

katiek I continue to be so sad you live far away. I would want to hang out every day if you lived nearby. You're just the sweetest.

@moonbeam and katespade You are both so strong and although you have chronic health issues that must be just awful, you don't spend every post complaining. I wish you both the best and hope they go away soon. 

wanderingenough You went back to the gym on maternity leave... enough said. Geez woman  

awick14 You have the cutest dog and I love following you on IG to see him more often

rockinrobyn You are down to earth and never post anything stressful. I like that. It's like having an easy going friend around. 

ginkgoleaf You are so chill about life. You don't seem to get riled up about things and just go with the flow. I like that and think it's a great quality. 

@emtmissy I can't think of a single time you have ever complained or said something negative. You're so positive and your life looks fun. 

MrsAggie You have the best decorating style and I love every time you post house pictures. If I could have you do a walk through of my place and give suggestions I'd be so thrilled.

amaranth I am similarly afraid to accidentally forget someone, and that's why I haven't contributed here yet!

I have mushy warm feelings for all the WC ladies and am very grateful you have accepted me as one of your own!

 I keep adding more. I've already edited three times and probably will tomorrow too as I think of more. As long as I tag them still still find out I said something nice, I hope.

It'd be easier if there were only like two awesome people here, but I so prefer it like this!

[estrellita]

Well, so far not a single person has mentioned me. So... yeah. I wasn't going to say anything but honestly it feels a little shitty. Either I have no good traits or everyone forget about me. I mean, it's no different than the rest of my life but still.

Anyways, this is exactly why I haven't participated yet. I think so many of you are great. So many of you have been through difficult journies and I admire your strength and kindness through everything. I wish I could be more like a lot of people here.

[katespade]

estrellita - I think that you are wonderful. I relate so much to so many of your posts, and I wish that you lived near me so that we could be BFFs and hang out all the time. You're always so supportive of everyone and I always appreciate your responses in threads. I promise that you were on my list to include in my post, I just haven't had time to actually put my post together yet.

[HoneySpider]

I didn't try and mention everyone in my post because it's hard to remember everyone...it's not that I don't think everyone is awesome.

This exactly. I didn't want to leave anyone out.

estrellita- I think you are doing such an awesome job with managing motherhood. I've actually stalked your formula feeding journey some, and you've been a of inspiration to me as I made that jump. You helped me remember that a happy mama is more important than breastfeeding R and crying through it. Thank you!

This is me too. I truly love everyone and think everyone is great (And I don't have nearly enough time to tag everyone haha)

I know I haven't been around as much as I wish I could be but I truly love all of you! Each and every one of you are strong and beautiful ladies! I feel so lucky to have you in my life

I nominate her as woman I would most want my H to work with. haha. Poor guy deals with so many miserable women, she'd be a breath of fresh air for him.
