We have such good friends :) Want to know what one of them did yesterday??? Without naming any names, one of our friends showed up yesterday with a "back to school" gift for Jason. (Oh yeah, Jason's going back to school! More on that in a minute!). He got him a great backpack, binder, paper, all sorts of pens.... very thoughtful, and yes, I did cry because it was just so sweet. Thank you very much, you know who you are!

So yes, Jason is going back to school as of Monday! He is starting a high school upgrading course so that in September he can start the Environmental technician course at Fleming College in Lindsay. And yes, that means that he is moving away... aaaahhhhh!!!! But its ok, its only for 2 years and he'll be home on the weekends, at holidays, and through the summer. I can do this - its gonna be kinda like being a single mom, and I know it will be hard, but I can do this :)

Its finally starting to warm up! I'm so looking forward to Spring - once we get past all the mud and greyness that is inevitable, everything just starts to look so pretty :) And I've got lots of flowers coming in May that I'll be planting with lots of advice from my neighbour, Connie, so I'm excited about that too!

Things are looking up :) Happy Thursday everyone!!!!

P.S. Happy birthday Grandma Reynolds. With love from everyone!
