Monday Meander - February 15, 2021

 It's Family Day in these parts, a relatively new provincial holiday begun in 2008 to relieve the stress of winter.


My family has yet to establish any set traditions for this, which is a good thing for the 2021 pandemic edition of this holiday Monday. It means that the list of  "Things that Cannot be Done due to the Pandemic" has not been added to today.  


Today I can sit back and ponder the memories of family times, from the poignant to the hilarious and everything in between. And here we are:

1959

1962

1972





And our lives would be so much less without the four-legged furry-pawed wonders who have greeted us with their big tail wags and bigger love.



One more thing: we are still growing! Grandbaby #2 is in the wings awaiting debut in late June 2021.

God bless us, every one - past, present, AND future.
