Father's Day

This is me and my dad. I was trying to show him around our new computer and thought that I would take the opportunity to snag a picture of us using the web cam... in hopes that I would be able to post something for Father’s Day.

If you ever wonder why I am the way I am, it’s because of him. Jeans and a t-shirt are a staple in my closet, because that’s what he wears. Backgammon is my favourite game, because it’s his. My radio is set to the oldie station, because that’s what he’s listening to. I’m a hard worker, because he always went above and beyond. He’s pretty great. Looking back I can see that he did his best, and like the saying goes, knew best. I love him very much, and wouldn’t trade him in for anything.

I’m also fortunate for having a great father-in-law. My favourite moment is when he sang at our wedding. I didn’t think that I was nervous, but once I was up at the front, my legs were shaking. He sang “The Lord’s Prayer”. He has this deep George Beverly Shea voice, and as I listened, I stopped shaking. That was almost 7 years ago. Even today, when I’m in a situation where I’m feeling a little shaky, I try to imagine him singing that song, and it calms me down every time. Thanks Dad!!

Princess Lily

Today I got to ride my new bicycle!!! It is pink, has streamers and has all of my favourite Disney Princess’s pictures on it. I also have a Princess helmet and elbow and knee pads to keep me safe. At first Mommy and Daddy needed to help me with some pushes. I was able to do it all by myself after I went around the park. I really LOVE my bike!!

Thank you Grandma and Grandpa Boo!!!!!

Birthday Party!!

I love to go bowling. Today was my first day. It was easy to roll the ball down the alley once Mommy showed me how. I liked my colourful shoes. They were velcro.

Grandma and Grandpa Boo came to visit me and bought me a bicycle!!! It’s a Princess bicycle!!! Daddy still needs to put the bicycle together, so I won’t be able to ride it until tomorrow. I’ll make sure that Mommy puts some pictures of me riding it.

My birthday weekend isn’t over yet... there’s more to come!!!
