Adoption

These are a couple of posters who have been absolutely fundamental in helping adopters through these boards over many years. I just wanted to acknowledge the help and support they have provided to me personally. Whether it was questions about kitchen extensions midway through stage 2 (what was I thinking!), celebrating milestones or calming my panic, they have given a huge amount of themselves and their experience for no other reason than they care.
I know that many people contribute to this space but these 3 respond to every question like it's the first time they've been asked it rather than the hundredth. And despite having their own challenges, they always offer support when needed.
I am and will always be very grateful to you all. Thank you.

Couldn't agree more, the support they give to one is support for all. Well said Pru. Thank you from me too!

Oo yay a fanclub (totally deserved). Can I add KristinaM to make the sainted quartet please?

I cannot imagine trying to do this without knowing their reserves of ideas, information, advice and laughs are there to help.

Oh yes - I don't really like the MN quiche thing, but this board would definitely be a worse place without any of those four wise women Thanks

Oh guys.... you've made me cry! What a lovely, amazing thread to click onto. You have no idea how much it means right now - I'm having a pretty rough time, so haven't been around as much as usual - but I will be back with a vengeance soon. I have got so much help and support from MN over the last decade, and you all continue to be a lifeline for me.

Thanks again; you have really touched me.
