A NEW YEAR IS UPON US!!!




The Holiday season came and went... Emma really enjoyed Christmas this year. She can actually sing We wish you a Merry Christmas, say Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.


She loved meeting Santa Claus at her school. She really, really can open her presents and others' presents too!!!




In the second week of her holiday, Emma started to say: La bus, Paige, School, more often. It's hard to explain to her that she is on holiday and that school will start again just in a couple of weeks.




Now, after this weekend, she will be heading back to school with, in her 2nd week, a sleep study at CHEO. We are also waiting for a call for a day surgery to fix Emma's first cavity... Routine stuff, really. Sometimes I think about how things were so scary during her first year, how we had to cope and adjust to new stuff, almost on a monthly basis. Now, all this medical stuff is routine, really... I don't even worry about the outcome, we just go through stuff one item at a time.




The members of my family have become masters of living life as it comes, enjoying every single moment, in our own way. We don't follow any given path, we follow our own, we follow our heart and this is why we are looking forward to this new year with excitement. We do not know what it holds for us but we know that, whatever comes our way, we shall deal with in a serene manner, respectful of others and of ourselves. So may this New Year bring to all of our friends a sense of belonging, a sense of accomplishment, and, a sense of simple bliss!!!

I am so glad to have you back online! Emma looks great - I wish I could have got a photo of the twins with Santa but at 2 there was no way they were going near him! It is funny how someone's post can be just what you need to hear. I am feeling a bit out of sorts tonight - worried about tomorrow. Hannah is being moved at child care from a room with 2 staff and 5 babies to a room with 13 toddlers and 2 staff ... I needed that reminder about serenity and respect. Thanks. Lol
