  Since you opened for business, what was the BEST moment ever???

  2 for me:
  
  
  
  1. A mom entrepreneur posted on Work It, Mom! about her business. She was having a hard time deciding whether to keep going and overcoming the challenges. So many members jumped in with ideas, suggestions, encouragement. I was wowed. (And she is plugging away on it.)
  
  
  
  2. This is a moment, but I'm lucky to have been experiencing it over and over -- when I get a note from a member in my inbox or on my page, telling me that they got something out of WIM or it changed something for the better for them, or that they just like coming here. I save all of these

  I've had several but the best is when I get happy, positive feedback from a client. One client even went so far as to put my name on their t-shirt...it said, "We love Miranda" in graffiti and it was right there with their logo, the traveling gnome. Teehee, I'll let you figure out that client's name.

  Nataly, I hear you about saving all of those. It keeps you going when, well, it is hard to keep going.
  
  
  
  Mandy, traveling gnome..hmmm can't possibly guess.
  
  
  
  The funniest thing about this site is that I feel like I KNOW you guys. Strange, yet cool.
  
  
  
  The best moment was seeing the first issue of the magazine - we all carried it around like a baby. The second best moment, seeing it on the newsstand at a store. Wow, it took my breath away.

  SK - those are awesome! I can totally relate as well -- my husband and I started a publishing company a while back and we'd go to the bookstore and just stare at our books on the shelves. It was such a high -- although I am sure we looked so silly! (PS I hope you'll bring a few issues of your mag to the get together on the 2nd!)

  Nataly, what book(s) did you publish? Were any of them written by you?
