Once again we are on our own again. At least this is the second last time that Pat has to go away for work....here in Comox anyway.
PS - Anyone like my new format and banner?

I love your new format and banner! I noticed it yesterday but didn't have a chance to reply. I've been running around like a chicken with my head cut off trying to finish this scrapbook and get things ready to go away for two weeks. All I want to do is sleep for three days - but I guess that will have to wait for the cottage next week. If I don't talk to you before we leave Thursday, we're back on July 4th and I'll talk to you then! Cute pic of Quin by the way - he has heartbreaker eyes ;-)
As the mamaloup (mother wolf) of my family, I decided it is necessary to document the daily thoughts and memories of this time in my life. In a confused, sleep-deprived and mildly insane state I wonder how much of this precious time I will in fact remember in the future. Therefore...the creation of this blog. I hope that this will also be an easy way to communicate with friends and family, show recent photos and put into words all the thoughts I would convey if I actually had the time to sit down and have coffee with a couple of friends.
My beautiful family consists of a bright and alert baby boy, a sweet little three year old girl who is the light of my life, a very active preschool boy who is my pride and joy, and my amazing husband, who keeps me sane.
