Fussy's Day of Tears & Laughter
I woke up yesterday and found this on Blissfully Domestic-
My friends set up the Mrs. Fussypants Baby Shower Site. Every hour yesterday, I had a new message to read. I was reduced to a quivering pile of laughter, tears and profound gratitude.
I wanted to share the site with you, Friends of Fussy. This is an example of the beauty of the Mommy Blogosphere. We are so passionate about our blogging because of the deep and wonderful friendships that grow as we share with eachother. As we slowly open ourselves up and share our lives with other women through our stories, deep friendships emerge.
This week is my one year anniversary of dipping my toes in the unknown world of blogging. This time last year I couldn't even email a picture. Needless to say terms like RSS and Technorati were completely unknown. It has been a wonderful year!
Yesterday's beautiful messages are a beautiful example of the amazing community we have here in our Mommy Blogging world. I am moved beyond words and forever grateful.
Love, Fussy

Wow, just one year and you're already a blogging powerhouse! Congrats!
(I'm sorry I missed that baby shower----I need to figure out how to get BD on my Reader so I can keep up with it). . .Happy Baby wishes to you too!

I also would have guessed you were a seasoned blogger!!! I have thought many, many times of starting my own blog but Im like you said you were...I need help with the simpliest things on a computer!! I do remember about 3 yrs ago hearing a newslady talk about checking out her "blog". I remember I had NO IDEA what a blog was or why the heck anyone would name something a "blog" or even want to check one out..lol..
I have come to really love yours and wish you the best with your five blessings!!!

Don't think for a second, BFOTI, that I would miss your shower!!!
I'm just fashionably late, that's all...you know, grand entrance and all.
It's there, just waiting to be published. Oh...the suspense!
Much love,
BFOTI

Happy Blogiversary! Not only do your contributions to the net brighten my day, you have unselfishly shared so many tips that have helped me find my way around in this complicated techno-land. You're just awesome!
Your loyal fan,

Fussy,
I visited your "shower" and all of the comments and the kind words about you are so well-deserved. I, too, am fortunate to have met the real Fussy. I am one lucky girl! I am continually showered with Fussy love because she just unselfishly gives it away. And her boys...always, always have been gentlemen. It's ingrained, I think. Lots of hard work from their parents. Boy number five is a very lucky baby!
Missing my Fussy!
xoxo
PS My family has been trying to guess the baby's name...

I cannot believe you've only been here for 1 year! Congrats! And we wish you well with that newest little boy on his way.

Happy Anniversary! I can only hope to be as good as you when I hit my one year mark.
