It's amazing to me the toll that it takes on the mother when the daughter is participating in recruitment and waiting on the invitations. Been there, done that in August. I'm pulling for you!

I was hoping she'd be an AOII!!
Welcome to our family as an AOII Mom! We'll take really good care of your daughter!

BTW, which Past International President wrote her a rec? That's hilarious! I'd perk up if I saw a rec from a girl from one of the PIPs!

I just realized you put this thread in the wrong place. Hopefully, someone will move it to recruitment stories.

What a beautiful letter. Congrats to you, your daughter and AOII!

You raised me with her values and allowed me to see and feel the love of her sisterhood; for that I am eternally grateful. You are my best friend and the woman I will always strive to be."
My cup runneth over!
Thank you for sharing your daughter with us, ZTA Doe. We clearly chose an amazing young woman to join our sisterhood who was raised by a remarkable woman! Congrats to you both!
