Birthday presents start to be thematic…

When you are busy with renovating an old farm, birthday presents start to be also very thematic. Illia found this beautiful old mirror (not sure whether I can call it antique, since we are unsure about its age) on the secondhand market, an analog of Craigslist but in Belgium. These sites are full of treasures if you know how to search and patient enough.

A small advance gift before long-awaited decorating and finishing phase so that I have something to look forward to, I guess, while sitting on the pile of bricks and insulation covered in dust LOL

And a couple of books to inspire ❤️

Whenever the day have a very Happy Birthday! You’re a beautiful person and am honored to know you from afar. My children’s father was from Belgium hence the amazing bond I have with you 💗

Thanks loads, Sharon!

That is a nice find. Good job, Ilia! I particularly like the selfie, you are very beautiful. Flowers are pretty too! Hope you have a happy birthday! Hugs!

Thank you, Gayle 😊

Marina P.

Aww… thanks a lot! I rarely do selfie’s but this mirror is worth the effort. Never realized how difficult it is to make a good photo of the mirror without exposing unnecessary objects and subjects 😀

Marina P.

He knows you well 🥰

First time I have ever felt the need to compliment a selfie. Epic.

Home is where your loved ones are. That mirror is beautiful and it will inspire you as you slog through the hard work of the main house. Happy birthday to you.

Gayle Parrish

Totally agree, the people that surround you matter the most. When we moved to Belgium, my friends were asking me how is the life there, how we are adapting. I always answered that the place / country doesn’t matter a lot, the most important thing is that your family / loved ones are by your side.

Heartwarming presents. (Like the books).

Farms are nice, but love and family are essential for a good life. Life seems good for you. Thanks for sharing!
