I just wanted to say Hi. I stumbled upon this site this afternoon and it looks really great. My husband and I are currently trying to find the money for me to be able to stay at home. We are trying to adopt and I would like to be a stay at home wife and mom. I look forward to learning a lot here.

Tiffany

Oh, and a question, what are the pictures in the white box (butterflies, keyboards, etc.) below your subject lines? I assume that perhaps it has to do with how many times you post? Just curious.

Hi! Welcome to FV! I love this site, it's my favorite now. I joined last August. I have learned a lot and it has really opened my eyes. I'm a SAHM and found that life is easier since joining FV.
