We are getting closer to our moving date, and it makes me sad to think about leaving our house here in Ottawa. There are so many things that we love about it. Here are some pictures that were taken by a professional to put on our sale listing.
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.
