The Oy gets really big when you start the wedding planning thing!

  Thanks, Gale.  Time does go by quickly.  My 6-yr-old daughter, Rya, drew a picture recently of this boy Jimmy she has a crush on and herself and wrote on the top: "meread" (married).  Oy!

  Enjoy your Thanksgiving with your family, Gale.
  Ingrid

    Sorry I'm so late getting back on this Ingrid.  Wow!!  Where HAS the time gone.  I originally joined mishmash in the summer or 1997 and I remember your post on Dirk's 1st birthday.  And now he's ten!!!  Many more happy birthdays to the young man.  

    Gale

      ...Dirk was born.  Yes, folks, in a few short hours (12:07 a.m. Eastern Standard Time) it's Dirk's birthday.  It's hard to believe that 10 years has passed already and many of you were around when I Ieft for the hospital.  He's grown up to be a pretty great kid who does well academically and already has a goal in life -- to be a Marine Biologist.  Not sure that will happen since he may change his mind, but he sure does read an awful lot about fish!  I've attached a photo of him we took on our trip to Canada this summer.  We used this photo when he entered the National Geographic Kids Magazine contest for a trip next August to South Africa.  Cross your fingers and say some prayers.  He'd love to go and he did a great job with the essay he had to do for it.  They choose 15 kids and 2 teachers and we think he's got a good chance.  Of course, we're slightly biased. :-) If he does win, it'll be a battle in the Holzman house as to which parent will go with him.  We can't afford to have the whole family go -- the trip is worth $20,000.  They stay at very luxurious resorts - several hundred per night.  I'll be sure to keep you posted.

      Hope you're all having a great weekend!
      Ingrid
