Thank You Jaymie!!

We are so sad that Jaymie is gone...but we are so excited for their new adventure!! Jaymie Thank You so much for everything that you have done for the Phoenix FSA! It is so much work starting up something like this....and we are so happy you did...because I know that it helped me going to even the girls nights!! Thank you thank you thank you! We will miss you!! But have so much fun in Utah!!


I also want to introduce myself. I am Shanna Bentley and they asked me to be the new Chairman of the Phoenix chapter. My husband and I have been married for 5 1/2 years and we just adopted our first child. Our son Davis was born March 3rd, 2012. He is the joy of our lives and we couldn't feel more blessed. We are so grateful for the beautiful gift called adoption. Having the girls nights with FSA really helped me feel better about everything...and even just being able to talk to women that had been through the crazy ride called infertility helped me know that I really wasn't the only person going through it.

I am so excited to be apart of FSA! I'm excited to meet and get to know everyone better! But more importantly I'm so excited for all of us to get together so we can help one another through the different stages of the process we are going through.

Thank you for your patience through this transition....I have no idea what I'm doing. But I'm super excited to get things going!!

Thank you again Jaymie! We are going to miss you (she's still on our Facebook page)!


Which reminds me...if you are on Facebook, you can friend me (Shanna Foust Bentley) or Michelle (Michelle Pulley Bodily), and we can add you to our FB group. It is a private group so no one can see it unless we add you.

Thank you again...and I really am looking forward to this opportunity!!
