Who knew a **turtle** could reach 10K so quickly?

Question

territurtle has 10K!

It's no secret that terri is one of my absolute favorite members on SD! She always has excellent questions and thoughtful posts. That's why I am sooo honored to be able to make this thread for her.

What!! At first I didn't understand till I checked my stats. You sure are quick, Girl!! ;) - territurtle, Sep 2, 2011

Great post, mi amiga:) - migelis, Sep 2, 2011

Gracias! - SonrisaDelSol, Sep 2, 2011

Who's kinder, gentler, more of a sweetheart than our Sunshine Smile Girl!! Talk about a bottomless well of giving! Thanks from the bottom of my heart. - territurtle, Sep 3, 2011

Answer 1

When I first "clicked" here, I never imagined reading such a thread

Quite overwhelming, really.

But sorry, my good and faithful friends, this thread is about you, not me. For you were the ones who held my hand, dried my tears, guided me past the deep pitfalls and rutts, humored me along; leading till I learned more than my initial four words of Spanish.

I'm so thrilled to have had the privilege of being in your comunidad.

Abrazos,

Terri-tortuga
