Looking outside my windows just now, I can see the last hints of yellows and orange play against the skyline, the last signs of fall.

Living in Canada, I am blessed to see the changing seasons and celebrate the most prominent symbol of all- the tree! This is the International Year of Forests and with perfect timing comes a new picture book by Barbara Reid titled Picture a … [Read more...]

Riley is a gorgeous Chocolate Lab and she came to us at just 6 weeks old. This year she turns 8! In a house full of boys, Riley is my girlfriend! She was a crazy, … [Read more...]

My favourite Chicken Soup for the Soul books have always been about moms. Even before I was a mom myself. Just in time for Mother's Day comes the latest edition- New Moms. It covers everything from 'The Countdown to Motherhood' to 'Toddler Time' and has a lot of tear jerking and funny stories throughout. As always, the quotes are beautiful too! I love a good quote! Here are a few I found scattered amonst New Moms~ "The trouble with learning to parent on the job is that your child is the … [Read more...]
