It’s a rainy, grey day… the kind that may make you feel like doing laundry and curling up and reading a book…<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/em>Yet… we are up, making and eating pancakes with real maple syrup (thanks to some of Sanj’s patients), with turkey bacon and strawberries. \u00a0We are showering and dressing for a day out in the big city, Toronto. \u00a0The Blue Jays are calling our name… our first baseball game of the year (and probably our last, lol).<\/p>\n

Then there is the draw to The Marche<\/em>, a yummy restaurant that is a smorgasbord of foods that just tease and taunt you in to confusion of what you want to eat. \u00a0It’s the kind of place that has foods from all over, curries, meats, soups, pastas, pizzas, steak just to tease you with a few choices… and then there is the crepes! \u00a0Oh my goodness… and they are huge! \u00a0They are mouthwatering and sinful, truly! \u00a0My favorite are the crepes with strawberries and bananas in the middle with ice cream and chocolate sauce over the top!<\/p>\n

Craziness, eh?<\/p>\n

I love long weekends. \u00a0I love days that are spent with all of us together. \u00a0This morning one by one, the boys came crawling into our bed… which is a king but feels like a twin. \u00a0There is enough room for three to fit without fighting… then the fourth child comes in, plants his little bottom on the top of a clothes basket. \u00a0Then the fifth child comes in, \u00a0it’s Sammy, who will squish himself where there is no space… he crawls horizontal over our heads, on the pillows. \u00a0The complaining starts… and then the last child comes in, and plops on the top of his dad, yet his body is not confined to just Sanj and the complaining begins. \u00a0The others are chattering about the games last night. \u00a0Who… which… when… and why of the hockey teams are left in the fight to the finish in the playoffs.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Me… I add my two cents. \u00a0I am not a fan of sports. \u00a0Yet, I, being the only female in all the testosterone that floats around, will not be left out. \u00a0So, I have my picks: \u00a0Detroit, whom all true Canadians hate… because I love their jerseys. \u00a0They have the loveliest red uniforms! \u00a0I love them! \u00a0So, I am cheering for the Detroit Red Wings… I also know that they are a pretty good team… and so I stand a chance of my team lasting longer than others. \u00a0Then there is the Washington Capitals… \u00a0this is my first choice team… Jason Arnott… I find him nice to look at… in his uniform. lol (of course not as cute as my Sanj…) SO… Go Caps Go!!! \u00a0Of course, these reasons stand to only infuriate the real hockey fans that inhabit my home… so that makes my pick and the reasoning behind them perfect! lol<\/p>\n

All in a day… \u00a0I love my family. \u00a0I love the gift of being together. \u00a0I love and appreciate the gift of health… as I heard this week of a family whose son was diagnoised with a rare form of cancer. \u00a0I love being happy… even though that comes with noise, lots of noise.<\/p>\n

It’s really is the little things that count, isnt’ it? \u00a0This morning, awakening to a freezing room, because I left the window open a crack, I was able to shuffle down the stairs, push a button and hear the heat click on. \u00a0 I was able to open my fridge and take out the ingredients to a yummy breakfast and feed all the bellies in my house. \u00a0I am able to hold all my babies in my arms and tell them I love them. \u00a0(Sanj had a patient this week come in with \u00a0ALS… unable to do the basics for herself).<\/p>\n

Yes, Life is Good… God is Good. \u00a0He’s the best!<\/p>\n

Happy Saturday… Tomorrow He ROSE again!<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
