It’s been awhile…lots of life has happened since I last posted in the summer of 2017. Someday soon I might share some of those changes. (honestly, I’m not even sure if anyone will read this!) But today I just wanted to share a few moments from today as I celebrated Canada Day with my daughter.

My Little Ladybug is very close to being 2 1/2 years old–technically July 6th she’ll officially be 2 1/2. Time has flown so quickly!

My friend, Darcy also is in the photos… she’s been staying with me since May to help with childcare. Let’s just say working full time and having a toddler in the house is 2 full time jobs! I’m so glad that she was able to come and help me.

“Live with intention. Walk to the edge. Listen hard. Practice wellness. Play with abandon. Laugh. Choose with no regret. Appreciate your friends. Continue to learn. Do what you love. Live as if this is all there is.”― Mary Anne Radmacher

“Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day. You shall begin it serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense.” ― Ralph Waldo Emerson
