Victoria Day Traditions

I think this place is where we laugh the most. Between the kids and the adults, an eruption of that good medicine can take place every few minutes. It's why we kept the family tradition going after it started to dwindle over the years. We love being together, and like a sparkler ignites and suddenly bursts into a thrilling but short period of fun, we come and play as families, loving every minute before we must carry tired ones to bed.

Jammies And Sparklers

Ah, springing into summer. It's been warm here and the days are getting longer. Do your children cry that it can't really be bedtime because it's so light outside? I love the long days but the mornings are light as well and that means that they wake up at the crack of dawn even after a late night. So, here they are, all cozied up in their jammies, but hardly ready for bed in their minds :) We let them celebrate the day with some sparklers and silently prayed they'd soon drop onto their pillows for a an epic slumber. Mommy and Daddy are tired.
