Praying

for contentment 

Reflecting

on my current schedule, the pace of life, how I can slow down and give my best self to my family rather than my leftovers

Feeling 

overjoyed for a friend who just got engaged and is getting married next month

Reminiscing

about the lovely weekend I had with my daughters and best friend at Camp Homewood's Mother daughter weekend. 

Enjoying

having my hubby home for two weeks to take care of me and our household for two weeks as I recover from the breast reduction I had on Monday. 

Looking

forward to going bra and bathing suit shopping. 

Wearing

Overalls I purchased a Value Village

Hoping

to catch up on project life while I am "in recovery" . I am nearly seven months behind, but I haven't given up hope yet.

Planning 

on going to this Spring Bouquet Workshop at Alicia's Florals  in Victoria at the end of the this month with a girlfriend. I can hardly wait to get my hands on some peonies and ranunculas. We are hoping to hit up the famed Union 22 on our way up island. So excited!!!

Thinking 

about how I would like celebrate my birthday this year and who I want to celebrate it with.

Trying

to organize our summer schedule and fit some fun things in around our busy work schedules. This summer we are hoping to do some camping on Gabriola Island  and rent a houseboat in the interior with friends. We are also hoping to camp at Sprout Lake and do some day trips. 

Collecting

armloads of dogwood flowers... and soon.. lilacs!!!!
