Well, it seems I’ve been MIA. I hope you’re having a fantastic summer with lots of reenergizing and reconnecting time. We finished our homeschooling at the end of May so as to prepare for a busy summer. And what a busy summer it’s been! It’s a summer centred around people–family, friends and new friends. Isn’t…… Continue reading MIA
That day of celebration for those women who have been given the responsibility of raising a tiny human has come upon us once again. I personally have attempted to do so six times. Yes, six (you can see them here). More than some. Fewer than others. Enough, you may think, that I might have some…… Continue reading the requisite mother’s day post

My cl boy cannot understand this. He believes there should be a law: NO CHRISTMAS MOVIES, MUSIC OR DECORATIONS UNTIL DECEMBER 1. Caps…… Continue reading christmas gifting ~ wrap it up
Seems I’ve been MIA the last few weeks. We have had a steady stream of visitors this summer…and more to come in the weeks ahead. We’ve also made a trip to Ontario this month and one the previous month. We don’t usually travel in the summer, as that’s our busy time, but we actually made…… Continue reading there is a season
