Instead Of “Enjoying Every Moment,” This Is What I’ll Tell New Moms To Do

November 2, 2017 by Leslie Kennedy Leave a Comment

The early months of both of my kids’ lives were not easy. My daughter had colic and my son was as fussy as they come. I remember how many people back then tried to tell me to enjoy those days. “They grow so fast," they said. "Savour this time,” they urged me. It was probably the most obnoxious … [Read more...]

Twenty Questions Other Than “How Are You?” To Get Your Kids Talking

January 13, 2016 by Caroline Hoult Leave a Comment

On a daily basis we’ve all been asked the—quite honestly—boring question, “How was your day?” by family, friends and coworkers. As we grow up, the tendency to put less thought into our answer becomes more common. We walk in the door and sluggishly take off our jacket and shoes, while absentmindedly … [Read more...]

Happy Father’s Day

June 14, 2013 by Ryan 2 Comments

The other day, someone at work asked me, “What’s it like to be a father?” and that got me thinking. He's about 6 months away from joining the club so I think he was looking for a little sage-like advice. To be honest, I think he was happy to find out I lost my hair many years before having kids. We … [Read more...]

For my friend: you know who you are.So you know those times, the ones where life is such a hard, hard struggle you just don't know how you're going to make it through?

Don’t give him your last bite of yogurt and other advice…..

May 16, 2012 by HeatherFawcett

While hanging out with Anastasia and Roman I was surprised to see how quicky toddler gender roles emerge.  Anastasia is just over two and Roman just under two so she is a little older which may account for some of her desire to be a care giver but I sense that it's partly because she is a … [Read more...]

Not So Sour Grapes

January 2, 2012 by Racheal

  A lot of people came down hard on the Grapes in 2011.  But the funny thing is, when I sat down with Don Cherry, it wasn't a loud-mouthed lout I was chatting with, rather a laid back, relaxed guy, who reminded me an awful lot of my father-in-law. I came with a list of questions from … [Read more...]

MY PARENTING COLUMN

October 20, 2011 by ChantelK

I have always wondered how "Parenting experts" actually get that title. Seriously what makes them experts? Is it the fact that they have children, or that they are a Doctor, a psychologist? So if I have more than one dog would that make me an expert? Well I have always wanted to have my own … [Read more...]

30 Seconds with… The Musicians

September 22, 2011 by Racheal

Back on the carpet I started wondering:  with 3 very different musical groups, and 3 vastly different musical styles, how different would their answers be to the same question, "what advice do you have for new performers?" The sultry Latina singer Amanda Martinez went first.  "I would … [Read more...]
