Spring 2017
We are living on Salt Spring.....nature abounds. Roslyn is 4 and a half! 
She is at the Salt spring coop preschool. Her friends are Ayla, Brianne, Isla, Harlow and Leda

Recently we sailed to Mayne Island with pal Leland. We had some fun times, some drama with swimming across a channel but it all worked out :)

A testament to babywearing

When my daughter was a baby, she needed to be held. All.The.Time! It was hard, so i learned how to baby wear! As she got heavier, it got harder and harder to find strong wraps to hold her. I kept a little collection of wraps that I would keep and use if I had another baby.

Many years later, I remember my fanaticism with baby wearing and all the fun I had with other moms talking about babywearing. It brightened my spirits when I suffered from ppd (postpartum depression) in a strange way. I ended up bonding with moms that have forever changed me, and with whom we supported one another going through the very stressful times of being moms. I will never forget such a strange time in my life.

Anyways, if you don't believe me about the fanaticism, here are some pictures of the wraps I loved and carried Roslyn in. We had a good time snuggling so close for so much time. Back then we didn’t have selfie sticks so I had a hard time taking a picture of both of us. The picture quality makes me giggle.
