Liam has more books than most children his age I’m sure. For starters, my Mom loves buying him books. I think it must have something to do with her love of reading and her passion for writing, coupled with the fact that she has an amazing collection of children’s books of her own. Before he [...]
Sometimes, I really wish this motherhood business was a paying gig! Watching the local news last night, I was fascinated by one particular story about the financial “worth” of stay-at-home-mom’s. Between chauffeuring, cleaning, cooking, teaching and the seemingly countless other tasks motherhood entails, experts estimate that the average yearly salary for a full-time mother (if [...]
I’m not sure if “clueless” accurately describes my gardening capabilities these days, seeing as I have a bit of practice at it now, I seem to be getting the hang of it! However, a few years ago I could not have made such a claim. People often ask me if I like to read, and [...]
With warm temperatures, and bright sunshine, it was the perfect morning to take Liam to the park, so we packed up a picnic and had a family outing.

We spent most of our day today in Dundas visiting Stuart’s Mom and Brother. Stuart’s Mom is an excellent gardener, and we relaxed outdoors enjoying the beginning of the spring blossoms and blooms in her yard…Liam played happily with Chloe, their Cairn Terrier, and we also enjoyed a walk around the neighbourhood…what a beautiful spring [...]
As they get older, it becomes increasingly difficult to photograph sleeping children. For starters, the flash required for photography in dark places would likely wake them up, and by the time parents of toddlers actually get their children down for the night, about the last thing on their minds is “hey, let’s get out the [...]
To continue yesterday’s post, I am pleased to report that the little dog which we found, has been returned to his grateful owners by staff at the Guelph Humane Society…sometimes, when good things like this happen, it makes it all worthwhile!
Coming home from a trip Downtown today, we had to make a sudden stop on Edinburgh Road, when a small white dog ran out in front of the car in front of us. Luckily, the car ahead of us was able to stop in time and avoid hitting the little fellow. He continued on his [...]
