Grace was in the Clarington This Week (newspaper) on Friday. Click here to see her.


A Family Day visit to see Gran and Great Gran. The girls made Valentine cards complete with a chocolate heart for both Gran and Great Gran.
We have a new addition to the Things We Like section; the Jolly Phonics program. This is what the girls are doing at school and the rate at which they are learning to read it really incredible to us.




We spent a great Valentine's Day at the Ontario Science Centre. I hadn't been there since I was a kid so it was very nostalgic for me. The girls loved the Kids Space. Especially Hannah, who I quote said, "Daddy, I can't stop laughing!"

School update


The girls are now in their second semester of JK and the real learning has begun. They are sounding out words and doing homework (above). The transformation from illiterate to literate is almost as amazing to me as watching them learn to speak was. This is a house that loves reading; it is rare that myself or Adam will be seen without a book, magazine, or website close at hand. So it is wonderful that the girls are now sharing in that.
