Best year so far

2013 has been very kind, busy, demanding, but ultimately a great one.

I love this photo taken in Sechelt, simply enjoying the wonderful summer.Jason is an amazing dad and definitely a partner in crime 🙂

Sara loves fooling around with him, I’m the cook and sometimes an art teacher, she calls me the great doer :), but daddy is the fun buddy.

We are enjoying this magic time when she still believes in magical things, but at the same time thinks about stuff all the time. She loves art, her art teacher is really wonderful, she understands Sara’s challenge with perfection and creates lessons that truly focus on the process rather than the product.

The trampoline and swimming fill our days, sometimes too much. Life can be so busy and my focus for next year is being more still with Sara.

Next year will mark six years of living in our house and it starts to show. Last year I painted our bedroom into a white crisp sanctuary and next year the rest of the house will follow. I still dream about new flooring with under foot heating, we are all tired of being cold all winter long 🙂

J will surely continue his cycling and I would love to do the same. Easter bunny might have to bring Sara new, bigger bike, with gears. That means next summer will be all about biking. We will try to organize a camping trip with some of Sara’s class buddies. I’m considering joining the PTA, because I would love to make difference in the experience Sara and others will have at the school.

We already joined couple fundraisers and it was fantastic to se the amazing community this school has, well at least the part that is actively participating in the school life.

Gardening, home improvement, my office work and possibly even passing an Infant ECE certification, we will see how will it all play out next year, well it’s past midnight, so it is this year, the fabulous 2014. the year I turn 39… 😉
