Don't know if Rebelyelle is here at the new board. I sent her a pm at Two Peas and I'll search members in a minute. But when I told my dd that Two Peas had closed the first thing she said was "What? Thank goodness it was after we met [insert Rebel's real name]!" lol
A few years ago Rebel asked about what people would pay a mother's helper. I noticed that she lived right near us so I mentioned that my dd loves children. After we had both (unknown to the other) checked each other's posting history to be sure we weren't one of the crazies (lol) we arranged for dd to meet her and her dh. Dd ended up being mother's helper for that entire summer, babysitter during the school year, babysitter now when she's home from college, and back to half-day babysitting this summer. Rebel's ds is now almost 5. omg... My dd is absolutely in LOVE with Rebel's ds. She reports all the cute things he says, and mentions daily to me how funny and smart he is.
None of that would be so if it hadn't been for Two Peas.

I got to meet IRL and online some wonderful women.
I also learned about Seche Vita.

Aww! That is great. I haven't met any peas that I didn't already know in real life, yet....but I would love to meet the few that I have become more friendly with online.

That is too sweet. I haven't met any peas IRL either, but I am friends with a few on FB and feel like I "know" them. I've gotten so much great advice (even advice I needed but didn't want), great ideas and inspiration from 2 peas.

That's so neat! I have only met one Pea -- we were in a circle journal group years ago, and we live an hour away from eachother. She invited me to a weekend crop, and we've kept in touch ever since.

That is a nice story. There are so many peas that I would love to meet some day. I met one pea briefly a few years ago, and I've corresponded with a few off the board, but I haven't made any in-person friendships. I'm still open to it if anyone wants to come to California for dinner! First drink is on me!

If you ever get the chance, TAKE IT!
