Noah was making a Father’s Day card today for his Grandfather. He had me write out the words on paper so he could spell them right. I’ve never been known for my penmanship. So when he asked me what letter R was in Father’s I wasn’t surprised. I told him what it was and hisContinue reading “That’s not a R”

Baby Canadian Geese
A couple nights ago we went out for a family walk around Miners Marsh. It’s a beautiful little trail close to home and doesn’t take very long to go around. There are usually lots of wildlife around. The kids were hoping to see a bunch of baby raccoons others had seen and taken pictures of,Continue reading “Baby Canadian Geese”
Old Photos and Memories
This morning I was given back a stack of old pictures that I thought were long lost and had honestly forgotten about. Going through them brought back a bunch of great memories. They are from just a short time period so it doesn’t cover all the good times we had. It was when I realizedContinue reading “Old Photos and Memories”

Saturday started out great, and it just continued right along that way. The rain cleared up and made way for gorgeous weather. We took advantage and with a group of other families headed out to float down a river. One of the fun things to do in the summer here is to tube down theContinue reading “River Tubing”
Wonderful start to a Saturday
This Saturday morning has started out wonderfully. First I slept in until 6:30, then headed down stairs with just my little man. While he played and watched a little Pokemon, I curled up in a chair with a nice cup of tea and started a new book. The rain falling outside was perfect background noise.

Monday I was able to get in to see my family doctor and she said it is quite common for this to come back so she immediately prescribed antibiotics again. To be sure itContinue reading “Nothing like family”
Wapuu Colouring Pages
My family has fallen in love with Wapuu, especially my son. He loves his Wapuu shirt and every time he puts it on in the morning he asks me if I’ll wear mine too. Lately he has been drawing and painting versions of Wapuu. He came home from school excited the other day to showContinue reading “Wapuu Colouring Pages”
Reason number …
No longer can I keep track of the number of reasons I love my job. But this is up there with the very top of them. Yesterday I received this feedback from one the people I had chatted with. It wasn’t only for me as they have chatted with a number of my team overContinue reading “Reason number …”
