Just a quick post tonight, in response to the many emails I have gotten about last night's post. The answer is NO, I do not have any pictures of me with drawings on my face. Sorry to disappoint.
While I am addressing comments, I will mention one other item. One of my sisters has helpfully pointed out that in the photo of me, Kirk, and the kids that is labeled "The Early Years," I appear to be wearing Amish clothing. Let me clarify two things: (1) I am not and have never been even close to Amish in my choice of attire, and (2) the dress in the photo actually belonged to the sister who now says I look Amish. If the shoe fits...
I am heading back home tomorrow night to be there for Kirk's 50th birthday. He would not have wanted a party - his birthday choice was always to stay home alone with family, have a great meal, and enjoy a good glass of wine. Well, actually, the wine was usually in a giant yellow plastic cup from Rudy's Barbeque. But you get the point - low key was his preference. However, this is a birthday I cannot ignore or hide from, so we are meeting it head-on and celebrating instead. We will remember, make a toast, laugh, probably cry some. In short, celebrate having had him in our lives. Feel free to do the same.
