Spring Break

Time to go to the Aquarium.
Adam could seriously live there. He loves it.

We actually could SEE the sloth!

Adam took this photo himself!

For Spring Break, it wasn’t too crazy. Busy, but not nuts and emptied out after 3. We had no problem enjoying the exhibits and the shows.
Not to mention we had a […]

I had brought your attention to the poor woman who lost her full term child at Burnaby General.  Her name is Dawn.  I am still hoping to connect with her.
I had contacted the MLA who is helping her and asked him […]

She had been leaking amniotic fluid and called her clinic repeatedly for advice. She was told not to worry.

When I read […]
