It’s almost summer time. Time for camping and fishing and building sand castles on the beach. And, of course, time for weddings! We actually have a big one in our family this summer. My mother in law is tying the…
The other day my almost six year old daughter was standing in front of the full length mirror in our bedroom giving her outfit for the day a check. She was doing various poses, checking out her outfit from different…
A Facebook thread from last week I observed (paraphrased very slightly because I didn’t copy and paste it): What Mommys 1-4 saw – another mother who clearly doesn’t understand the severity of food allergies. So what if her kid is…
Well another Mother’s Day is behind us. And I hope that all of you had a fabulous one! Mine was pretty great. In between taking my daughter to her Acro class and swimming lessons my family took me out for…
Ok my Saskatchewan friends, I know it’s still a little chilly out there but spring is here! The snow (although we didn’t have much) is melted. The tulips are just weeks away from blooming. The robins are in my backyard…
If you are anywhere close to my age there is a really good chance that you had a sticker collection as a kid. And I bet that a lot of those stickers were scratch ‘n sniff. Man do those bring…

Oh Google you magical wizard that knows all the things. Where would we be without you? You know all the answers. We just have to know the right questions to ask. Or do we? Maybe you’re trying to be helpful. Maybe…
Ok I admit it. I’m kind of a geek. I was the resident math whiz in school. My favourite class in college was stats. And I love science. I can’t get enough of it. And my little girl is following…

I have a good life. And lots of things to be thankful for. But I would be lying if I told you that my life is awesome or that it even remotely resembles the life I imagined I would have….
