Can I Use the Wrench, Daddy?
Great post from David Humphrey about teaching his children what makes a computer go. I still don’t know my way around their insides (computers, I mean, not children); maybe I’ll get to learn along with Maddie.

Sadie Lewis wins “Mother of the Year“. Says one interviewee, “If it weren’t for moms like Sadie, we’d never get bananas or snuggle.”
Pictures say it better than words ever could:

Feeding the Fish with Mummy and Grampa

In the Big Chair

On the Beach

Sadie Looks Good in Hats

The Bride Makes Her Entrance

Love, Honor…

Cutting the Cake

Three Mothers

Uh, What Just Happened?

Maddie gives it a try:

The backstage party:

Sadie’s reaction to it all:

We need a DJ for our reception on Sept 6. If you know someone in Toronto who doesn’t think that 70s Eurotrash disco has come back into fashion, or that little kids and gangsta rap mix well, please let me know.
Recent pictures of Madeleine helping in the garden:

and of the new house (main floor and upstairs):


At quarter after ten last night, in our pajamas, Sadie and I signed the papers to buy a new house. (Well, new for us: it was built in the 1920s, and the previous owner lived in it for 51 years.) This afternoon I picked up a check at the bank and handed it over to the real estate agent as a down payment. It seemed like such a small piece of paper, considering everything that was riding on it… We take possession at the end of August; lots of renos to do (knob and tube wiring — yee hah), but we’re very excited.
