This is how fast 10 years go by....
Quick driveby..
Would you believe that my little baby Allison (who some of you may remember as "Jippy" LOL) is turning TEN tomorrow.
TEN!!!!!!!!!!
Seems like just yesterday that I was posting (therapeutically) all my fears and worries about her preemie health and remember how comforting you all were with encouragement, wellwishes, and stories of your own children and their experiences. You were all right!
Now, if she could just stay TEN and not end up turning 12, 13, etc....

Good to see you again, Mike! And yes, ten years can go by in the blink of an eye.

It's great to see so many familiar nicknames in here... boy do those days seem so long ago.
I hope those of you who are still with us are doing well and living their best lives.

Which gives me an idea and suggestion. We should have an "In Memoriam" page where each BB we've lost has their own RIP thread. Folks can drop by and share their memories, wish them happy birthday, whatever.littlebeast13 wrote: ↑Wed Jun 25, 2025 6:49 amEven spookier how 14 years can go by given the number of people in this thread who are now deceased...

Plus, it will let folks know who has passed.
