Inspired by a trip to Disneyland with my Granddaughter.
If we could live life like a 2 ½ year old in Disneyland, we’d go to magical places and be entirely in the moment. We wouldn’t be rushing to get to see everything, we’d be happy to just be wherever we are. We’d trust those that guide [...]

Guess who learned to embed videos in her blog today? This video has been a favourite for a long long time. If you’ve ever known a child, or been one yourself.. it is a must see. And a reminder to each of us to take responsibility for focusing on our own strengths. Enjoy.

Laying out under the stars with 2 year old Evalee.
Nana: “Aren’t the stars beautiful?”
Evalee: “Yes. I made them.”
Nana: “Did you?”
Evalee: ” Yes, I did.”
Nana: “oh, I’m so proud of you!”
Evalee: “Yes. I made that tree, too”
Nana: “You did?”
Evalee: “Yes, I did. That tree right there.”
Nana: “You did a good job!”
Evalee: “Yes, I did.”
Such a beautiful [...]

Evalee is two! Oh the fun of it all! Everyone got to play ’slide’, ‘wagon’, baseball, and participate in pinata smashing, candy grabbing, .. icing picking, and if we weren’t the ones laughing, we got to listen to the laughter of children! A perfect party for a two year old!
Here’s the gist of my message on the [...]

My passion since the beginning of time has been ‘let the children play’ and ‘bringing play back into our adult lives’. I didn’t know years ago that this passion would direct me to careers that incorporate this passion; that it would lead me to learning so much about mind/heart, left brain/right brain, soul/ego; and in this process [...]
There is an art to blogging… I’m going to ignore that and write about Evalee.

There are people who take ‘master blogging courses’ to develop the art of blogging. I suspect that if I took the course I would fail. Not just because the formatting and fonts of this particular post have taken on a life of their own.
I think one is supposed to stay focused on a theme of [...]

Happy 18 month old day, wee precious pumpkin princess Evalee! Thanks for the great game of “Where’s Evalee?”.. and for announcing knowingly “Santa” when you discovered a snowman snowglobe. He looked a lot like Santa. Thanks for playing dress up with the dolls, and playing kick and splash in the bath, and for the beautiful [...]
Playing in Fall Leaves

The Willow Tree has dropped all of it’s leaves and the yard is full of these brown and yellow treasures. (the brown does not refer to the poo post, by the way) Today Evalee and I played outside in the leaves. We’d throw them up in the air and watch them fall. She would run through [...]
Ice cream and Butterfly kisses

Today I bought Evalee an ice cream cone. I think it’s the first cone that was ‘just for her.’ I asked if they had a very tiny baby size for a tiny baby. They said YES! But it was not so tiny. And was dipped in chocolate. Evalee loved it and managed it very well. She [...]

I never get colds.. but here I am with a cold. I’m sure the cure is to do whatever I feel like. Maybe I’m just supposed to relax and re-adjust to the coolish Canadian weather? So, what I’ve been doing is adding photos, and some ‘addendums’ (in italics) to some of the travel and wedding [...]
