Holy Crap! I'm 30! How the heck did that happen? Above is a picture of myself with Teds little sis Katherine the weekend before my birthday. Ten years ago I would never believe you if you had told me I would have three girls and live in Arizona. What a ride life has been up to this point. I may be 30 and how I feel now inside, outside and about life, I would never trade just to be 20 again. I had a nice quiet birthday and was just happy to have Ted home, who never should have been in town except for some last minute changes that allowed him to come home. I went shopping for myself, by myself (which I haven't done for years), I picked out a gorgeous Australian opal necklace (my gift from Ted), the girls made me gifts, my Dad sent gorgeous flowers (he almost always forgets my birthday, good thing he was on the ball, or else....), and my mom sent me a beautiful silk robe and beaded purse.
Isi is pictured with my purse she had claimed for the day and wearing the new dress I made her. She has learned to say mine, along with an insanely high pitched scream that she thinks makes her cute and funny and can run the DVD player all of her own.
As for Athena and Hera, their new thing this week is Taekwando! Finally I signed them up at a great place right around the corner from my house. I might have to try it out one of these days.
Till next week,
Hugs and kisses,
Charmaine
