Keva is 6

It was a celebration that lasted a few days - going from five to six is a BIG deal, you know!


Birthday 'Loot Bags'
Birthday Lady with Lemonade Loot
Scooter!

MOMENTS: Sweet and Silly Six Year Old

We had a birthday dessert and a movie in the backyard with Grandpa Mike to kick off the festivities. This event introduced the scooter into Keva's life. Then, her birthday party starting with a swim followed by playground time at Regent Park with her friends. Dinner was her choice - sushi of course with Kimberley and Isabel. The celebrations ended on Keva's actual birthday with yet more presents and another round of singing with cupcakes! She is loved and is well celebrated - all six years of her! Happy Birthday, Keva.

The Big Bed Shuffle

Ever since Keva's pneumonia in the fall, she's woken in the night in search of someone to sleep with. Her single bed became increasingly less appealing to sleep in for an adult, let alone for an adult plus a child. Enter, double bed to the family! Ahhhh. Turns out, moving a new bed in makes for a lot of sleep-space changes for everyone!

Out with the old!
Preparing the site...
In with the new!

Humber Exploration

We took Sweet Ride out for a spring paddle along the Humber and found more than we were expecting!


MOMENT: Graffiti, Nature, and Play

Some amazing artwork under the bridge crossing the Humber. Tavish a strong paddler. Heron. Turtle. Dragonboat. Bridge. Playground. Portage. Family fun.

Cookie

We arrive at piano to an offer of a chocolate chip cookie that Tommy and Katie made together. YUM!

During Keva's turn on the piano bench, this conversation happened between Keva and Katie:

Keva: Did you eat a cookie too?

Kate: Yes. (pause) I might have had more than one.

Keva: I wish I was you.
