Kim – Thanks for anniversary wishes. I know what you mean about having an outlet. I get some of my best ideas from my village moms.

RookieMom – I used to call them my online friends back when our village was just starting out. But, now, we just refer to each other as friends when mentioning each other to people “in real life”. We actually had a discussion about this topic. Most of us have never met each other in person. But, we laugh together, cry together, celebrate milestones together and confide in each other. In our opinion, friends are friends regardless of where we meet them.

I like that you have language to describe it — your village — and that your husband has a word for it. I always get awkward when referring to someone who I know only online. Do I say “one of my blogging colleagues” or “someone I know from blogging?” “My twitter friends are talking about xyz…”

I love our online Village. I don’t know how I’d have gotten through pregnancy and the last two years without everyone’s love and support. I feel very blessed and lucky that I had the great good fortune to have a Nov. 2006 baby!

Hi Amy,

Great post. I couldn’t agree more (obviously!). I am so thankful that we’ve got Our Village, for the good times, for the hard times, for all those burning questions about sleeping and pooping and all things kid related. : )

Love you!

Jen
