01. After delivering the girls to their school, I dropped my boy, Caden, off to school first thing this morning. Oh how I wish he'd do up his coat. It's starting to get cold around here!
02. Back at the house I was greated by all of the mess that we didn't manage to address while Cole was in the hospital. Now there is no avoiding it!
03. Each Monday I volunteer with a group of lovely mums at the College Shop - where we sell candy, logo wear and - today - a ton of calculators. Clearly exams start tomorrow.
04. Home to a waiting load of laundry. Well, more than one load.
05. All prepared for the big pick up - happy to have Oprah and Dr. Oz keep me company. I'm guaranteed to know more when the kids are picked up!
06. They are all home and getting ready for singing lessons, rugby visit, some studying and then off to "Rent" rehearsal.
07. The drive up over the QEW for Chloe's singing lessons and Cole to see Tyler at rugby. Tons of sun and traffic.
08. Cole gave Tyler the story of his recovery - walk and fart, walk and fart - what can I say, it's a guy thing! Cole also got a few questions answered as he can't come back until after the new year and wanted to make sure he was on the schedule for the indoor games starting in January.
09. My sweet girl made sure the lights were all turned on.
10. My other girl couldn't turn away from the camera quick enough when I delivered her to play rehearsal.
11. While all of this was going on, my mushroom-garlic-tomato-spinach concoction was simmering on the stove. YUM.
12. The Winter Warlock, my favourite. "Put one foot in front of the other" is one of my favourite 12-months-a-year songs. It may sound strange but this half hour clay animation Christmas Special is my favourite! Before collecting Claire, and settling in for the night, I watched "Santa Claus is Coming to Town" with the boys.
The one photo of the day I didn't capture? When I told Caden we received notice that he was accepted to join his brother and sisters at school for grade 7, next year. He was so very excited! I'm so happy for him - and so is everyone else :)
