The snow has just been so sparse, that the kids will use any amount to build something...even when it doesn't amount to much!
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.

Wilbert Sammon
Finally Mommy had an early settler from her family at the Century School House! Mr Wilbert Sammon was a very good student, he did not speak unless spoken to and understood that children were to be seen and not heard! He was also very mindful of his manners saying "yes please, Ma'am" and "you are welcome, Ma'am" when it was appropriate. He also worked hard at sitting in first position for the day. Ms Taylor was pleased to teach him.

Winter "Camping" 2018
We left the Big City in search of winter! We found some snow at Silent Lake Provincial Park and made the most of it...
MOMENT: Wonderful Winter
We met with Megan, Paul, Xavier, and Kier to play outside and remind ourselves what winter is really supposed to be!

Rocking It (Jan 2018)
We show up at a restaurant to meet Kimberly and Isabel after Keva's finished her skating lesson.
Keva walks up to Isabel...
Keva: do you know what rockin' it is?
Isabel looks confused...
Isabel: Pardon?
Keva: Do you know what rockin' it is?
Isabel: Keva, what do you mean?
Keva: You know, when you rock something?
Isabel: Yes, I know what that means.
Keva: Good because I was rockin' it at skating tonight!

Two Teeth Taken
Over the holidays, we noticed that days of Keva's mouth-full of perfect baby teeth were numbered. Some adult teeth had a mind of their own and were joining her mouth, despite her baby teeth still hanging out...
MOMENT: It was Tooth Time...
On the first Friday after holiday, the dentist took matters into their own hands. Keva lost her first (two) teeth the help of Dr Sugarman (yes, that's the dentist's actual name). Keva was a trooper. The event didn't even dampen her desire to dance and socialize!
