First vote in! Andrew just spied this photo and while backing away from the computer said "oooh! I don't like spiders..." Hmmm. Guess I have a little edumacating to do around here. ;)
cg- Well, it seems you'd fit in with the arachnophobes in this house too. My boys both are a little squeamish over spiders. To be fair, I used to be, but am just not anymore. I think it comes from having to put on a brave face as a pre-school teacher/mama so as not to pass on the fears...
smid- Thanks! I am kinda fond of that new lens.:)
jen- Fair enough. Can't say I would want to run into one like you see in the Harry Potter films! Uh, no.
I'll admit, I'm no fan of spiders. But Julia? She loves everything creepy and crawly. And anything she can get excited about, well, I can learn to live with.
Well, I'm not really fond of anything that sort of looks like an insect or a spider. Not that I'd kill each and every one of them, but if they were, say looming over my bed... *shiver*
The story begins like this: A couple of years ago my husband got a crazy notion in his head that returning to school after years in the professional world might be a good idea. So he and I along with our three children left our suburban life in the U.S. and traded it for a new adventure in The Netherlands.
The saga continues like this:
A year of post graduate study was so much fun, we figured we'd stay a while longer. Working in a new field, attending new schools and living in a new city, I dare say we have settled into a rhythm in our expat lives.
This blog is the record I keep of our experiences here; good, bad and hilarious. Intended as an outlet for my expression, this is the place for me to say my something.
