the "Horse Boy"

sorry i haven't been blogging lately, i have been sooo tired and Twitter has been taking up my time - it can be sooo addictive! i have been reading a new book or two (ten) The Horse Boy by Rupert Isaacson is wonderful and heartwarming. The love and devotion of a father trying to find a way to heal his Autistic son; the journey they take half way across the world becomes a journey of true Love - it is absolutely beautiful - a must read. Back on my home front: Ryeder is anticipating the end of grade 1 with true excitement of not having to wake up sooo early for a few months; and grade 1 being finished forever! we are taking him to NYC this summer so he can finally see his beloved "Lady Liberty" he has been anticipating this for three yrs now - it will be great to see him light up when he see's her. more to come on that trip in about a month. anyway i have to go - you can catch me on Twitter @birdb anyday of the week and i will be back here soon - hopefully with something interesting to relay.
