Emma had her Grade 2 R.A.D. Ballet “presentation” this week. She was very excited. Everything had to be spotless for the examiner. I ironed her character skirt that morning. The kids watched me ironing & asked “what is THAT?”. I’d like to say that I iron after they go to bed, but that would be [...]

Little Liam

Liam was the last of the kids to get sick … poor kid. He had it pretty bad. Thankfully was improving on Friday/Saturday. Just in time for Mike & I to have the flu thing? I dunno. Sigh. We have some pretty awesome neighbours & they took Emma & [...]
Trying out the Stamp-a-ma-jig

Liam is napping, (so far he hasn’t picked up the bug his siblings had), so I thought I’d try out my Stamp-a-ma-jig (without helping hands). This is my first go at it & it seems to centre things much better than my own eye does. I see Kristina Werner use it all the [...]

After looking around different websites like iSTAMP , NoTimeToStamp , CaptureTheMoment, and a few others. [...]

Okay so Emma-Sian is all better & will be going off to school this morning. Malcolm; however, about 1/2 before supper last night, “My tummy huuuuuuurts”. Isn’t it nice when sibblings share? I guess this house has been hit with a virus, that thankfully passes quickly. Malcolm is quite upset [...]

Emma is home sick today, “I don’t feeeeel good Mum, my tummy hurts …” hmmm, no fever, a bit pale”. Well better safe than sorry. It was a good idea … she didn’t last long & there is a bucket by the bed. At least at 8 years old they give [...]

The provincial government had declared Monday, February 18th as Family Day. A holiday for many in Ontario … stores closed, hope you remembered to buy your milk yesterday. We had thought about going skating on the canal or tobogganing; however, the weather didn’t cooperate. Instead, we decided to go 5 pin bowling, at the [...]
