It's been a great week in Lonsdale, just Brendan and I hanging out. He has tried very hard to talk to me, to fill the otherwise deafening silence in our house. Monday night we went to the National Air Force Museum in Trenton and visited the WWII Bombers and Cessnas and visited the local truck stop. Tuesday we got out all his model train layout stuff and took over the basement. Wednesday was a very exciting day; I was vibrating with pride as Brendan was surprised at a school assembly with the Township award for literacy for a student from each school who demonstrates a passion for reading! I took him out for dinner to celebrate, and to spend his prize Chapters gift card. Cause when it's just the 2 of us, you can just go do that. No plan, no nothing! Thursday night we cleaned up the house for Danielle and got ready for Brendan's track meet today, where he was representing his school in Standing Broad Jump! A very exciting week. We have officially departed now, and are heading up on the VIA train (Brendan's first since he was itty bitty) to Ottawa to celebrate Brendan's birthday at my brother's before flying to Calgary to meet the rest of the gang on Monday! See you there!
