Well, kind of. I think they will come to call it home before much time passes. It was after all Sylvia’s home for many years of her childhood so it is fitting that like all ‘Wadgeians she has returned and brought her family with her. I worked with Henry years ago. Well, again, kind of. [Read more]

Tyler and Lloyd went out to Sand Lake Saturday. Lloyd on my polaris (4 wheeler) and Tyler on his dirtbike. They had a lot of fun but I’d rather Lloyd wasn’t driving my 4 wheeler too much as it has been fixed hoping I can get on the trails for some ATV World articles. They [Read more]

What a great way to end the year! Parents and caregivers were invited to join their children for a casual picnic of hot dogs, fruits, cold plates and deserts, in the Nursery School yard.

If I had to single out one activity as Emeraude’s favourite, it would definitely have to be Play-doh. Any opportunity she has to choose an activity whether home, at the family place or at her Dad’s Play-doh is always her first choice. I must add that it is also a favourite of mine. If [Read more]
Emeraude was thrilled last weekend when Daddy invited her to a campout in his backyard. I went by in the evening to say goodnight and found them roasting marshmallows by the fire (too cute) with her in her pj’s, I couldn’t resist returning with my camera. The [Read more]
The kids and I could’ve been postal workers; neither snow, nor sleet, nor wind, nor rain… HAHA. Nothing stops our fun outside (well, short of me being unable to stand but if my legs are working, even just a little, we’re out there). This evening the flies were terrible and it had [Read more]
I feel like there is so much to say tonight but don’t think there is any way I will get it all down. What parts do I edit and still give an honest account of where I am at with things? I will do my best and apologize if parts seem hard to follow… [Read more]

Well, it’s been such a busy week that I did not even have the opportunity to post about LLoyd having company. His dad, Darrell White, drove through on his superbike, apparently headed for Newfoundland (although this was not easy to establish as there were other destinations mentioned as the [Read more]
We are blessed to have a beautiful school playground just around the corner as after a long day it is nice to take a quiet (short) walk and go play together even for a little while. This chalk is Emeraude’s outline, she lay patiently as I traced. She was quite impressed to see how big [Read more]
Yet another trip for pain meds… I can’t say “just” another trip because they are never dull when Emeraude & Vickie accompany me! These ladies keep things fun & interesting 🙂 These treats are from a different trip to MGH Emeraude & I took. We had made a [Read more]
Emeraude and I went to deliver a little tray of treats to Vickie, a small thank you for her having spent her day at telehealth appointments with me. Well, most of her day, she wasn’t always in telehealth appointments, sometimes she was in the emerg watching me get pain meds or driving me back [Read more]
