Meeting Forever Parents Members

I’ve been so fortunate to be able to meet some of the fantastic women that I’ve grown to love through our adoption forum. So far I’ve met Linny, Robin and Faith…all of which have contributed to this blog.

Last week my husband, daughters & I drove to Tampa (we’re about 90 minutes away) to meet the fabulous Lori, who blogs at Weebles Wobblog and posted about our meeting here. She also runs Best Light Adoption Profile Review. We went to a really nice place for dinner. The coolest part of the meal was the purple Peruvian mashed potatoes. They tasted just like regular mashed potatoes, except they were a beautiful purple.

Here’s all of us. That’s me and Lori sitting down and my daughters Jacqueline & Shawna standing behind us with my husband Billy.

Lori was one of the members I wanted to meet for a while so I’m glad we had the chance! She’s very down to earth and we all had a great time hanging out with her.

Lori, April 11, 2008:

It was a dream fulfilled for me, too! I loved being part of your family, if only for a few hours. I was quite taken by the potatoes, too!

Wonderful memory.
