HI THERE (said in the very familiar voice of one of Nory's Fisher Price toys)! I haven't sat down to write for a while and the honest truth is that I simply haven't felt like it. I suppose I was feeling a little bummed at times this week. Kinda sad and gloomy and I woke up today with HEARTS on my mind! Glittery ones. And delicious ones. And there's something about this shape that just HELPS.
The week went by pretty quickly. Nory was happy to be taken on many after-school outings to our school or other schools for some sports action. Phil is deep into the basketball season in every way possible (does his coaching mind every stop?!). And I enjoyed many well-rehearsed performances from my grade six students. There was lots of running around and planning and marking and playing and cheering and chasing and wanting-to-be-sleeping. Hence the fast work week! Hence the fast school year. Hence the "we're going to be home for summer SO SOON!".
Now it's the weekend. HOORAY! Today was special and I hope to share photos with you soon. It involved a cake, an almost-one-year-old, and an Auntie Gem. Eeeee! I think an editing process is underway and we will get to see some of these sweet moments soon.
In other news, I DO believe the winner of The Biggest Loser looks way to skinny. I DO love Google's most recent search page. I DO believe in steam-ironing as a form of relaxation. I DO think that extra strength Tylenol is intended for people bigger than me. I DO love my newest read "Wonder". I DO think that "The Fosters" has potential to become addicting after viewing episode one. I DO love me some zesty italian bbq chicken in the slow cooker.
As for the going-on's of NOW, we are THRILLED to discover that we will be able to watch the Olympics here in Kuwait. The opening ceremonies is on right now and we are quite enjoying it (British accents and all!). It seems that we are in the perfect time zone to watch events AS THEY HAPPEN. Here's to a safe Olympic games! GO CANADA GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LAST BUT NOT LEAST - Phil will be leaving for the airport in about 45 minutes to pick up Mom P!!!!!!! (And her 56 pounds of Nory spoilage, I'm sure!) Here's to hoping she gets through customs quickly so they can get home quickly for a late night tea party!!!
Sending much "wish we were cheering on Team Canada side by side" LOVE! xo
