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.
Another covid birthday, but all things considered, we were very lucky!

MOMENTS: Twelve and Terrific
We are so blessed with this kid. He's kind, he's caring, he's funny, he's empathetic, and he's TWELVE! His birthday fell on a school day, so we woke him with a birthday tune, fed him some waffles (mmm, whipped cream), and sent him on his way with a birthday note tucked into his lunch bag from his adoring sister. Birthdays are a big deal around here and it almost always involves sushi yumminess and celebratory cake! There was a short window of time where things opened up just a bit before locking down again, and Tavish's birthday fell in there! We rented a fire pit at Ontario place and had a socially distanced, masked up, outdoor party. We had a great time celebrating a truly great kid!
It was a successful season of skating! A great way to be safely social, accessibly active, and happily healthy! The back yard rink was a great recess option during school lockdown in January, Jimmie Simpson rink gave us a neighbourhood meet up spot, and lesser-known frozen ponds provided pick up hockey and social skating safely. We hit the skating jackpot this year!
MOMENTS: Skating on Thin Ice
You don't need much ice, or much space, to have a great skate!
