Back to School! Back to making lunches! Back to homework! ARGHHHHHHHH
This year there is no back to school excitement coming from me. ‘It’s the most Wonderful Time of the Year’ is not being sung by me. However it would appear I’m the only one as my daughter, Rachelle is excited about going into grade six. My youngest son, Max is going into grade five. My oldest, Jonathan is in his first year of University and my second son, Greg is enjoying the life in his second year of CEGEP.
Usually by this time I feel this urge of excitement for a new stage and getting back to an orchestrated routine. No, this year I want more summer, more down time, more canoeing and lake time. I would welcome more time-freedom with no obligations. Am I completely alone on this? (more…)

Summer Reads for Boys
June 25th, 2009 by Trish
I just love reading and ever since I had boys I realized that they were interested in other topics than girls and that to ignite their passion for reading might be a bit of a challenge. From early on, my oldest son was attracted to real stories about actual things rather than the typical fairy tales and Disney books that my friends’ daughters were so enthralled with. The pattern repeated itself with his two younger brothers. Along the way, I have come across wonderful books for boys and thought it would be fun to share them with you this summer.
