I wanted to post a picture of my scar, but now that I'm looking at this picture my neck looks freakishly odd, it looks long and giraffe like, and what is happening on both sides of my neck? Why is it sticking out like that? Weird.....anyway, this post is not about my freakish looking neck, it's about my scar, I will try to focus. I haven't always loved my scar, but after 9 years it has become a part of me and I really like my scar. My scar has always been my second smile because it stretches from ear to ear.
After my recent surgery I received 6 stitches, yes only 6. My last surgery, 9 years ago, I had 50 staples in my neck, so 6 feels a bit wimpy, sorry back to my neck, once the stitches were removed I noticed that my scar was not as "scar-ish" as before. It seems thinner in the middle and just doesn't look like my scar. Why does this bother me? I'm not sure, what can I say...I'm strange. I like my battle scars, I'm proud of them, I worked hard and suffered long to get them. I really need to get over my obsession with my scar.

That picture doesn't do your scar justice. Good thing you said it was you, I thought it was a giraffe.
Your new scar looks a bit like my scar. How are you doing? I cannot believe your kids are all so old! It blows me away! What a cute little (not really little), family you have. I am really proud of you Paula!
