I feel like it is time that I tell you how much you all mean to me and how Fanpop has changed my life. About a year ago I became a stay-at-home mom. Which was really a blessing, however a huge stressor in my life was the fact that I had essentially no adult interaction during the day and no way of really feeling validated. I found Fanpop one day while browsing for Office episodes online. I saw the picks and it looked so fun, that I just had to join! Since then I have spent hours everyday on Fanpop. It is my outlet for all the stresses of being a young mother who is nearly solely responsible for the well-being of her children. And while I cannot contribute as much as many people who have more free time I love it just as much. The reason is.... you! The people I have meet on here are so nice and kind to me. They respect my opinion and help me feel like I am important. Just little things like giving me props or nominating me for fan of the fortnight for August 16-31 or hottest girl on Fanpop . Those little things make a difference in my life that you will not believe. You are my adult interaction. The part of my life that was missing. Previously in my life I feel like I have always been the one pulling all the weight in my job or at home and never getting ahead or any praise for it. After joining Fanpop I realized that people do appreciate me and value my opinion! I was so excited when I was nominated for Fan of the Fortnight that I am literally still smiling about it. Yes, I know it sounds stupid to think of something like this as a blessing, but it has made me such a better and happier person. I am a better mother and wife because of your support and kind words. Thank you!
