Dear Zoey,
3 years ago, you took your very first step.
3 weeks ago, you took your very first step into the real world - you started Junior Kindergarten!
I still can't believe it. Every now and then I would look through your baby photos, get a little teary-eyed and wonder where my lil chub[...]

Dear Appa,
Today marks the day the world became a better place and our world became brighter because a loving son, man, friend, husband, father was born.
We had a hard time finding you a birthday gift that compares to the gifts you give to us on a daily basis.

You're the first to take us downstairs and make us our favourite breakfast. Cereal.
You're the first to give us time-outs when we make bad choices.
You're the fi[...]

Dear Zoey + Emma,

Never lose hope because all the pieces always fall into place. Perfectly.
Onward and upward,

Dear Emma,
You started crawling at 7 months and then pulled yourself up on your feet at 8.
You took your first assisted steps at 10 months and then your first unassisted step just after one year.
And now, you're walking!
It's been such an inspiring journey to witness and it's days like these[...]

- Dear Emma,
A year ago today, you gracefully entered into this world. You took your first breath.
Since then, there have been many more firsts. First touch, first smile, first tears, first roll, first tooth, first laugh, first crawl, first fall, first hug, first peekaboo, first summer vacation, fir[...]

- Dear Zoey + Emma,
It's been a crazy past few days. And I'm sorry I couldn't continue with my 12 DAYS OF BLOGGING. I was on a roll too!
In a nutshell, we encountered a severe ice storm, we lost power for 2 days, we got it back in time to host our Fam-Jam Christmas Party/Emma's 1st Birthday Bonanza [...]

This was our first ever Santa Claus Parade. I see many more down the road.
