Dear Bonnie,
It's been a joy and an honour to work alongside you all these years. I will miss my daily visits to MBS. You deserve a rest from all your hard work.
Do drop in for brunch when you have the chance. The coffee's always hot and the door is always open!
Warm hugs,
Hermione
Good bye and God Bless.
It won't be the same around here without you. You have been a staple in this community and are an inspiration to us all! I hope this new chapter brings you much peace, and blessing and spanking of course :) Hope to see you around here sometimes!

Yours is the blog by which all others are measured. You will be missed.
you will be very missed. Im a lurker and your site was where I always started my reading. I divorced and no one knows this side of me. Reading your blog and the ones you posted on here were great! I will miss you!
I wish you the best of everything you may do. I hope you find something that bring you as much joy as you have brought all of us.
Bonnie,
This blog, thanks to the time and energy you've put into it, has been a fun, safe and informative place for many of us finding our way on the spanko internet.
You'll be missed.
Many, many thanks.
Goodbye Bonnie, your blog had always been one I have lurked at most over the years without saying anything! All the best in your future away from the blogisphere... x
Those are some impressive numbers, but not what you will be remembered for.
Good-bye Bonnie!
Bonnie,
Happy New Year to you and Randy.
Sorry to see you go. You will be missed.
Thank you for everything you have done for this community.
Love and best wishes,

Bravo, Bonnie, your statistics say it all. I wish you best in your 'retirement' years. Thank you, from one of your beloved 'spanko's. Please visit us, once in awhile. The best to you and your husband in the coming year 2014, and beyond.
Thank you so much for your amazing contribution to this community. You will be very missed.
Thanks Bonnie, for your service as a community maker. I'm sad to see you bring MBS to an end.
I read off and on and rarely commented, but MBS has always been the gold standard in the spanking blogosphere.
Best always to you and Randy.

Thank you, Bonnie, for all the posts and and the blog roll and for being such a positive voice for those of us who enjoy TTWD. Thanks for including me in the blog roll when I started "Spanking Minnesota" almost 6 years ago. Have a wonderful 2014 and I look forward to seeing you around the blogiverse whenever you choose to drop in! Happy Spankings!
Hugs and spanks,
Dr. Ken
Thank you very much! It was wonderful
Gracias!!
Bonnie,
Yours was one of the first spanking blogs I discovered. I continued to enjoy it over the years along with the many blogs I discovered through your tremendous list of links. I have had a long interest and activity in mf spanking and credit these links with helping me find my true joy in fm spanking, wife led marriage and chastity and denial.
Although your blog did not focus much on those activities, it remained as a friendly, intelligent place for many people to learn more and share their experiences. This helped us to learn that what we do and who we are is "okay".
Thank you for all you have done.

Wow Bonnie, all I can say is thank you so much for the wonderful things you've done for blogland. I wish you nothing but the best, and you will be missed. I hope to see you around from time to time. :)
Bonnie, thanks so much for this wonderful blog, a welcoming entry point to this community. I am very glad that I found you. Wishing you all the best!
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. I hope life gives you as much joy and pleasure as you have given us through all your years of hard work and sharing on this blog.
Wow, that's a very impressive final accounting, Bonnie! I wish you and Randy a Happy New Year and all the best for 2014. I hope you are going to enjoy your retirement as a blogger and I hope to see you around regularly in Blogland as a commenter.
Very sorry to see this fantastic blog disappear. Best of luck for the future
Bonnie:
I am sorry to admit that I have never commented before. I just want to say that your blog has brought me a world of pleasure over the years. The very best to you and your family. I shed a tear of sadness for your readers but I shed a tear of joy for you and your family.
Bill
Thanks so much. You really added something positive to my life.
oh Bonnie sorry to lose your fine blog ,best wishes from ,Tim.
I'm just now seeing that you've decided to stop blogging. You've been a wonderful asset to this community and I wish you well in all your endeavors. You will most certainly be missed! Thanks so much for all that you have done and for just being you! (((hugs)))
I'm so sad to see you're leaving our blogging community.
I remember finding your wonderful blog about 2007ish.
I stopped by from time to time back then and I began coming here more and more often as the years progressed. Something I noticed early on that continued to grow, was your warm and caring demeanor. Also, I loved how you shared other bloggers new blogs.
All the numbers above are beyond impressive, but the one that jumps out the most to me was that you helped 2025 new bloggers by introducing them to all of us. (I'm proud to be 1 in that number)
Here's a number that would be impossible to calculate. How many bloggers have began are are gone since you first started in 2006!
Thank you so much for all you have done. You are truly a pioneer in this community.
Oh, and there's one more number to calculate.
There will only ever be... ONE Bonnie.
Bonnie: The blogging world won't be the same without you. You've meant so much to so many members of this community and your support and starting LOL days literally changed my life. I just hope you don't delete the blog so we can still stop by from time to time because you list of blogs is such a great resource. Good luck in whatever you do and I hope someday you will have the itch to return.

Bonnie,
I hate to see you go I've really enjoyed your blog. I feel like I owe you so much for being the first one to advertise me as one of your new blogs a little over a year ago. My how time flies and it was you helping get the word out as well as others that made my blog take off overnight it seemed. I've been thinking of taking a break myself as it does take a lot of time to keep up with these blogs. A luxury that I seem to have less of now but that's a good thing.
Anyways thanks for all you've done for us over the years and know that you will be missed.
Dianne
Farewell! Thanks for starting the brunches! Mary
I've enjoyed your blog, lurking over the years from time to time. Hi. (: I just want to let you know that your words helped me to accept myself and not feel embarrassed about just being who I am. Thank you.
wow!! amazing stats -but more amazing are the comments of those who will miss you - who learned from you !! You have been an amazing driving force .......
thank you for being you ! :)
All the very best for 2014 and beyond
HI Bonnie,
Your blog was one of the best every. Sorry to see you leave. Your articles were cleverly written and anyone that read them enjoyed them. I appreciated the generosity you shared in letting me share your articles over the span of years. Take care and good luck in all you do. You will be missed.

Bye, bye My Bottom Smarts. Thank you for everything you've done for us spankos and bloggers, Bonnie. With very best wishes for the future, Rod of The Canery x
You've been amazing and so incredibly generous. I have so much respect for all you did for the spanking community. What a wonderful contribution, for which I thank you and wish you all the best for your future.

I just realised this, Bonnie I hope you are Randy enjoy your life together. Thank you for being my first ever comment on my blog and thank you for the love our lurkers days and the brunches. Wish you well. thisgirl x
Thank you! You're already missed!
I understand.
It's still sad. :(
I will miss your wit and the graceful way you influenced the spanking blog community.
Bonnie, after 9 months of lurking I am venturing forth with comments. Thank you so much for your warm, friendly blog. I read all your posts and they helped me become more comfortable with my spanko interests. Consequently, after 20 years of marriage my husband and I are having lots of new fun and adventures. Thank you for all the time you invested in creating a welcoming and generous community.
Well, after reading this blog by Bonnie for a while (sad to see her stop) we've been inspired to start our own blog: http://midlifeawakening.tumblr.com/. We hope you'll drop by and give us a look...! Bonnie, thank you SO MUCH for taking the time to post everything you did here -- it was immeasurably helpful in our earliest days...! C- and N-
