I've been meaning to capture the moments that make motherhood so special and although there are many videos and photos which will account for the first 15 months of Tavish's life there are no journals or scrapbooks. So, this blog will document the tid-bits and tales of the moments that make a mother proud, happy and generally enthused about this ride that is motherhood. This has been created for me but I invite you to read, share and enjoy this collection of moments too.

Fresh Face of Four
The day after her birthday, we caught the feisty, funny, and frowny face of this fresh new four year old over some sweet dessert ... and with the phone's selfie function...

FOUR!
Keva turned the BIG 0-4 on a Saturday so we celebrated her in style!
MOMENTS: Love & Jumps
Keva brought some banana and pb 'sandwiches' (with the corner dipped in chocolate!) to share with her friends at Moe's. What better way to spend a day than being surrounded by those who love you? So, a whole cast of Keva fans participated: Caeli, some friends (Parker, Zach, Isable & parents), Grandpa Mike, Auntie Colleen, Alanna, a phone chat with Grandma and Grandpa, and of course, her biggest fans: Mommy, Daddy, and Tavish. There was jumping. There was sushi. There was cake. Happy birthday, Keva!

Urban Cook Out
Turns out, you can have a cook out in the heart of this great city! We got a permit, gathered the crew, and let the kids run free!
MOMENT: Outside Fun in the City
The ravine system in Toronto is a hidden gem and this group of friends uncovered a small section of it. Kids played. Adults Chatted. Dinner. Marshmallows. Sparklers. This is how friends make memories!

Swinging and Skipping
We've got some batters swinging and a new skipper in these parts...
MOMENT: Swing Batters Don't Skip a Beat
Tavish plays fielder for his bat swining buddy, Charlie. Keva takes a step up to bat. Tavish discovers skipping. It's all so fatiguing yet tiring that Daddy has to haul these swinging skippers off to bed!

Waterfront Weekend
Saturday was paddling to the Leslie Spit from Cherry Beach. Sunday was kite flying after a bike ride to the beach. Ahh, the perks of living near Lake Ontario.
MOMENT: Canoe. Kite. Bike.
What more could we ask for? Family togetherness and a canoe, then a bike ride, then flying a kite. Fun family.
