I feel bad it has been so long since I posted an update.  We are finally in full blown spring mode.  I love it.  The leaves are on the trees and we can finally get outside.  Benjamin is just taking it all in.  I cannot keep him inside if my life depended on it.  He is out there all the time.  Its wonderful.  It just makes everything much better.  I love watching him run, play and explore.  He loves going on "adbentures"  and is constantly pointing out new places as we drive where he think the next adventure could be.  Its amazing.  The past few months have been good.  Benjamin had three morning sessions at the school where he'll be going to kindergarten.   It has been so helpful.   When we went to register him for school we couldn't get him in the building, but yesterday at the last session he was sitting in the classroom between a bunch of future classmates eager to play.  It makes me feel so much better.  I still think full day kindergarten will be a big adjustment for him, but I know he'll love it and I'm looking to this new stage in my life.   I am apprehensive and a little sad, but also excited about having a little more freedom and time for me.

Its hard to believe that summer is approaching so quickly and so is Benjamin's fourth birthday.  It sounds so strange even saying it, Four!  Wow.

This summer is going to be a great summer.  Benjamin is at fantastic age now and I think camping is going to be a lot more fun and a lot less work then it has been.  We're venturing a little further up north this year with my cousins camping and I'm excited for the kids to canoe and swim small northern lakes as opposed to the great lakes.   Its definitely different camping then southern ontario camping.   We're planning lots of day trips as well.  Its going to be great.

We are loving life and enjoying every minute.
