Round Two

September 25, 2012 by Christine

Yesterday, once again we woke up at the crack of dawn (actually it was still pitch black out) and headed down to Sick Kids for round two of laser treatment on her hemangioma. Last time I fed her a granola bar without thinking and therefore ended up doing the procedure without sedation. She was a … [Read more...]

Are You Going To Die?

September 6, 2012 by Sara

"Are you going to die?"  This from my four-year old, almost asleep in his car seat, last night. On the weekend, he started asking me questions about my mom.  I explained that she got very sick and that the doctors couldn't help her, and so unfortunately, she died.  I'm not going to candy coat it. … [Read more...]

(not) Home Alone

July 19, 2012 by Christine

A couple of weeks ago all three kids went for a sleepover at Sean's parents house. I woke up the next morning and came downstairs to see Sean sitting at the kitchen table sipping on a coffee, going through his twitter on his tablet. I made myself a coffee and sat down. And drank it. HOT. I had … [Read more...]

Make it right

May 10, 2012 by Jason

I am consistently baffled by the never ending struggles of trying to raise a child to be a good person. Everyday a new, twisted piece of the puzzle is presented and I am left scratching my bulbous noggin and thinking what was he thinking, where did I go wrong and how can I quickly correct this. This … [Read more...]

Being The Mean One.

June 14, 2011 by Tracey

The sudden change in weather means a change of schedule at our house. It's been blazing hot many days at 4 PM, and the children are begging to go outside to play... but there's still homework for my first-grader to finish (though less and less of it now) and once that's finally done, it's time for … [Read more...]

Good Boy

April 28, 2011 by Tracey

As I always do, this morning I watched my son walk from our door to our neighbour's house a few doors down - she drives him to school along with her two children each morning. This favour is possibly the BEST thing that's happened to me this year - it saved me walking my kid to school in the snow, … [Read more...]
