While waiting outside the school to pick the kids up earlier this week I was asked by another mom if I had a good March Break. My response was swift (and maybe a bit knee-jerk) "No, it actually sucked." She looked taken aback and said "Oh that surprises me coming from you." Then I felt like a … [Read more...]
FotoFriday – Frigid Forecast
I can't believe the difference between last March Break: and this March Break: Stupid winter... Stupid cold... I was patient with the cold weather and it really didn't bother me up until about 3 days ago. I'm so done with this winter. Anyone else? … [Read more...]
Tied up
I wrote this post last August with the firm knowledge that my boy would eventually be tying his own shoelaces. Before I sent those awesome Lego shoes to school I did what I think was probably the most crucial step to Cuyler succeeding in this task. I dyed the shoelaces. One half of the lace … [Read more...]

Off Kilter

Music to my ears
I've lived through the recorder once already when Cam was in grade 4. He took it again in grade 6. He is currently learning the ukulele and I think that's pretty cool. The notice came home awhile ago for me to send the money in for Cuyler's recorder. I rolled my eyes, sent it in and forgot about … [Read more...]
