Hi, I was thinking about joining the Sisterhood but would like to find out more about it. What do you have to do? What is all this talk about badges? How do you earn them? Does it cost lots? I'm a newbie to all this so you will probably have to start from the very beginning with me. lol   Thank you!!
Hugs,
Channah

Channah, wow! This is so cool. NO ONE deserves all the outpouring of love like you do. You bring such joy to all the rest of us.
They better get ready in the "home office".....tons of badge submissions will be coming in!

You really have to read all the posts here to know the whole story. After Channah asked about the sisterhood and how much it costs, I remember that she uses her money to feed her goats and has had to drop out of some barters due to that fact and that she always sends out cute notes and tea to some of the farmgirls on here. I decided I would buy her sisterhood membership as a random act of kindness. Apparently when the order went in, Brian noticed that I was buying it and wanted it shipped to her. He read the posts and decided to tell Mary Jane about it and she decided she would gift it to her. Brian called me and told me what was going on and I thought it was very thoughtful on both of their parts. It also enabled me to buy the sisterhood necklace for Channah instead. All these fantastic posts really make me feel good and I am sure by the looks of it that Channah feels overwhelmingly grateful also. You deserve it my farmgirl little sister Channah Onn.

Wow! I know I am in the right place here! My eyes were leaking so bad, I had to go find a tissue. Diane, you are such a great example of what a sisterhood is all about. I feel so proud to be a part of this group.
I too, want to get started on badges...I would really love to join in with you all, if there's room!

Hi Channah,
Just read all the posts, and think it is so wonderful! I never noticed that you weren't in the Sisterhood, either! I love seeing all your posts, and you were one of the first to welcome me here at the Forum. I am so impressed with all that you do. I am a mom of a little girl, and you are the sweet, down-to-earth, creative type of teenager I hope my daughter grows into someday!
Congratulations on your new Sisterhood. I bet you'll be earning "Badges" left and right! Big Hugs!

Oh Channah I wish I had you here right now, sooooooooooooo I could give you a big hug. This grandma farmgirl is sitting here with the tears flowing. You are such a sweet girl and give all of us so much everyday! Diane that was such a loving action you took. This is what they call farmgirl sisterhood. And where would we be without Mary Jane and Megan and Brian! And the necklace, what a gift!!!!! Love you little farmgirl #1219. Let's have fun working for our badges!!! Yeepee

Channah,
Congratulations!!! Yup . . . you are our Little Sister Farmgirl!!!
I, too, send my thanks to Mary Jane, Megan, Brian and Diane for all their generosity!!! WOW!!!
AND, if you have merit badge questions I can help with I'm there with you.
Just a beginning suggestion: don't try to tackle too many at once. Look 'em over and pick some of the more "do-able" ones.
CONGRATS!!!

This is wonderful Channah,
I too had been thinking about this and wondering about it. I don't think I would be very good at some of the things that you farm sisters do.

Channah, I am happy for you! And what a great bunch of big sisters you have here. I never even noticed you didn't have the hexagon. This is just one more example of the MJF connection here. This really has helped me to see this. I hope you get lots of merit badges. It makes me want to earn some, too.
Hugs, little sis.

Channah - I have copied and pasted the merit badges into a word document (then printed it out and put it in a binder). If it would make starting on your way easier I would be glad to email you a copy. Let me know what you think when you float back down to earth :-) Congratulations #1219
