I've been squeezing in some getaways as I'm going back to work in just over a week (!!!!!!!!) My in-laws have a place on Pender and we were able to stay in it for the first time last week. Pender Island is a short ferry ride from Victoria (about 45 minutes). It's a super cute island and we had so much fun exploring!
Read MoreHope...defined as "the feeling that what is wanted can be had or that events will turn out for the best". I've often been someone who hopes for the best. As I've shared before in this place, I'm a natural optimist...sometimes a realist...and sometimes a pessimist but mostly an optimist. And sometimes that has gotten be into trouble. My hopes were not met, and I ended up disappointed.
Read MoreWe are beyond excited to welcome another baby and give Luca a sibling. If this baby arrives on its due date (like Luca did!) then they will be a little less than 16 months apart! It's wild and crazy and they will be a little bit closer than I had originally planned but hey, it's all going to work out just fine :) (at least that's what I keep telling myself....ps. so thankful we have a lot of family and amazing friends in town!)
Read MoreHave you seen the movie Lion? I saw it this weekend and OH MY HEART...bring kleenex because you will be crying multiple times throughout it! It's a heart wrenching (but also happy story) about a little boy who gets lost in India. So many things stood out to me in the movie (Nicole Kidman's monologue about adoption, was one for the books) but a huge thing that I couldn't stop thinking about was the relationship between the little boy and his mom....such incredible, beautiful love that still haunted the son 25 years later (PS. Find out more about the movie and how you can help street children in India here).
