yes i am 2 months older than dirk... you know what they say about older women right?
anyhow... i printed this picture of the frio river and framed it for him as a present along with some little creatures pale ale beer... dirk loves this stuff and it is $35 sing for 6 beers (OUCH!).
we love the river, especially during fall! the colors are amazing (i think that is what i love about life... COLOR... if there wasn't color, life would be rather boring- our house is all shades of orange, red, blues, and yellow- we really love color around here)
back to the subject... so this is a picture taken from dirk's parent's river house. dirk's aunt's river house is just next door. dirk has many many fond memories as a child at the river so i wanted to bring a little of home to our new home in singapore... i took the picture to our favorite framer and she did a wonderful job.
we are hoping to have a house at the frio in the very near future... we have looked at some property and hopefully soon we will get our act together...
so dirk's birthday... it also represents one year ago the traumatic discovery of my 2 lb fibroid. i went for my yearly visit and IT IS NOT BACK! YEESSS! so relieved! NO MORE FEBE the fibroid! i told myself i would give my body a year to heal and then we would consider starting a family... we will see. so it is out in the open... i am not one to hold things back... just no questions ok?
i do however like hearing everyones detailed and truthful accounts of motherhood... i don't know if my highschool friend Jodee reads my blog but i read hers and i think she is the strongest person i know... she writes the truth of how hard it is... i like that! actually i think all my friends that are mothers are STRONG! they should know that... i admire all you ladies :)
anyhow..... enough sharing, let THAT sink in for awhile...
