Happy Spring! Group: Administrators Posts: 27,473 Member No.: 2 Joined: 8-February 03	Have a place for web site or picture links? Have scheduled live chats? Have a section for product reviews? Have a section for messages from child to Parent? Just some ideas that we could implement if anyone is interested. What do you think? -------------------- Dee Dee , Mommy to: Ashley Marie 9/05/02 Joshua Lee 2/03/00 (Our Angel in Heaven)

Me too, Me too!! Group: Members Posts: 2,795 Member No.: 26 Joined: 28-February 03	Scheduled live chats would be a blast! Also, for one of the other pages or some topic, etc, whatever, it would be a good idea to list some of the wonderful abbreviations that everyone uses (DH, DD, BM, BF, etc, etc) because although most of the people here might know what they mean, there are probably just as many who don't and don't want to be embarassed to ask. if there was a webpage on your site (too hard to find as a forum topic) that would list/explain them all, that would be great. -------------------- Beverly, DH Eje, and mom to PJ, 20 Leah, 18 Sara, 16 Anders, 5 and Emily, almost 2 "A mother holds her children's hands for just a little while, but she holds their hearts forever."

Me too, Me too!! Group: Members Posts: 2,795 Member No.: 26 Joined: 28-February 03	I thought of another variation of one you've already got listed that I see alot in other places - not so much here, but probably pretty common IMHO - In my humble opinion -------------------- Beverly, DH Eje, and mom to PJ, 20 Leah, 18 Sara, 16 Anders, 5 and Emily, almost 2 "A mother holds her children's hands for just a little while, but she holds their hearts forever."

When you list these abbreviations, put them in alphabetical order so that it will be easier for ppl to find them -------------------- Beverly, DH Eje, and mom to PJ, 20 Leah, 18 Sara, 16 Anders, 5 and Emily, almost 2 "A mother holds her children's hands for just a little while, but she holds their hearts forever."
