Arrrgh, Avast there ye scurvy blog readers, prepare to be boarded! It’s easy these days to come up with a birthday gift that kids will like; Playstation, DVDs, MP3 players etc. It’s a little harder to come up with a present that will knock their socks off and inspire imaginative play. This year we built the girl’s room into her own pirate ship. Complete with Johnny Depp posters.
Like the swallows to San Juan Capistrano, or the hot dog vendors to the corner of Yonge & Bloor streets in downtown Toronto, nothing says spring more than the return of the Canada geese to the television station. It won’t be long until there is nesting and the pitter patter of tiny waddlers all around the parking lot.
On the downside, there is a lot of shoe cleaning to do.
