Summer of 2006 a group of ladies "met" in an online community with one thing in common, they were all pregnant and due to have babies in March of 2007. Little did we know, almost 6 years later and with our March babies starting kindergarten this fall that we would develop this strong bond online. We have been there for each other through deaths, divorce, marriages, and births of more children. We have fought like cats and dogs. But ultimately none of us would give up what we have with this online group; a place to share, laugh, and care about one another.  We have 56 current members of our online group and currently chat about anything and everything in an online Facebook Group.

Some of us have never met any of the members of our online group. September 20, 2013, Erin Walsh, a member of the group will be getting married and has invited all of us to her wedding in Eau Claire, WI. This is a once in a lifetime chance for us all to come together and support her and finally MEET. The problem you may ask, financing. We are hoping that maybe a national show like Ellen, the Today Show, or Good Morning America may want to help sponsor us to Eau Claire and in turn do a story on our group and how close you are able to become with people you never meet in person. Sign our petition and let them know about us and our story!

I honestly started this thinking it would be a small thing for our group but the kindness I am seeing here is completely overwhelming. I spend my evenings reading your messages and it is clear that this connection means as much to you as it does to me.

I truly never imagined that so many people would take interest in our little group of mothers. Seeing this momentum grow fills me with such gratitude for everyone who has chosen to spend a moment of their time helping us get to this wedding.
