We never knew when we posted our #1 post  the changes our #496 post would bring.  What changes would happen in our house, what we would win, or what we could lose,

 We never knew how special a blogville friend would be to our hearts, how we would meet some of you, talk to you on the phone, and send you emails each and everyday.

We never knew.

We never knew when we started our own blog we would be gaining friendships so near and dear to our hearts that when you are hurting we hurt for you.

We never knew.

We never knew there would be hello's and laughs from all around the world, we never even thought there would be cracks left in our hearts from the cracks left in yours.

We never knew.

We have gotten private emails about hurt in your lives, just like what we were going through, stories that had not been told, till you read ours, tears that had been cried behind a closet door, until you saw ours right out in front of all our blogville friends.

We never knew.

WE never knew that our little blog would bring us daily joys, tears, understanding, and acceptance for everything we are feeling that day.  We have went to dances, parties, picnics, races, and dates.  We have went to the Moon, talked to an Alien, tried on our mom's underclothes, reviewed treats and supported other blogs with auctions and games.  WE have had to say goodbye and remember the lesson that was taught no matter how hard it was to see ...and feel.  We have told ourselves with each goodbye to make sure we say hello....cos you are all important in our small piece of the world. 

We never knew.
But now we do.
Stella Rose, Margaret Mae and Angus McConnell
