A photo on Friday, because sometimes all you need is the picture. It’s been a while since I’ve shared a ‘photo on Friday’, but when I thought of this idea I just needed to share. It’s rockin’ (Madeline just read the above sentence and said — “Mom, don’t drop the ‘g’” — but I’m going…

Spring!
The most amazing thing happened on the weekend – Spring! Well, one day of it at least. The snow did return yesterday, but that is just part and parcel for living in Canada, eh? But that one day – goodness, it was good. We spent every last minute outside and enjoying the sunshine (and the…
