Summer Holiday

Our long-overdue holiday has finally arrived! We leave today for a six-night camping trip in the Georgian Bay area of Ontario. Camping to be followed by visiting with friends and five days at the cottage.

Bean is ready to roast marshmallows and wander through the woods. His concept of camping is mostly based on Curious George Goes Camping  so I think he also expects to get sprayed by a skunk and help put out a forest fire, but we are hoping to avoid those if possible.

It has been 7 months, almost to the day, since we were discharged from hospital after the end of Gavin’s treatment. To a certain degree, life has become “normal.” Gavin is running around this morning, hindering us from getting ready to go, as a typical almost-three-year-old should. I feel blessed.

See you on the other side!

Here is a clip from a few weeks ago at the cottage:
