Smartness

Ok people...this is just a brag (not even a humble-brag) concerning my dear darling husband.  He got straight A's this term. Yes indeedy.  Another reason he is the bestest.
Also..sent this to a realtive already, but couldn't resist posting here.  Reading a book on Elizabeth I of England and came upon a picture of a French prince.  Tell me who YOU think it looks like?

Last of the pics

Alright...so this isn't all the pictures I took.  But close.  These are from the airport in Tehran.  (On our way home.)  This is one of Amir's cousins.  The son of one of the aunties from Kangavar.  (And of course Mohsen.)


And something I learned while in the airport.  Tehran is THE place to go for nose jobs.  Holy nose bandages!!  Every other person had a bandage.  And not just the women.  Men too.  Yes I shouldn't laugh, but ever time I saw a new one I couldn't help it.  One of Amir's male cousins got a nose job and I asked him why?  I love my husband's nose.  It has such character.  I told him it's his heritage right on the end of his face.
To each his own I guess.  Amir said plastic surgery was big in Iran and not terribly expensive   So if you're in the market for good work and reasonable prices....
All in all though, we had a delightful time. Yes I cried in the airport.  These people are all my family now.  Wish we could have stayed longer.  Amir's family also says we need to come in the spring when it's pretty and not so cold.  
As a wise man once said, it's not the places, it's the people you miss.
