This picture brings back SO many memories. On this day, all over Canada, kids wear pink to #StopBullying and celebrate kindness. #Pinkshirtday is a reminder that being kind is a choice, and those who practice it should be celebrated. 💟

Pooh was walking along, humming to himself, when suddenly he came to a sandy bank, and in the bank was a large hole. 'Aha!' said Pooh. 'If I know anything about anything, that hole means Rabbit, and Rabbit means Company, and Company means Food.' ~A.A.Milne #WednesdayWisdom #food

This morning I switched things up and wrote from a coffee shop. I ordered a flat white and flipped open my laptop, only to find it was dead. Black screen. No charger. My writing day was ruined. But then I pulled out my notebook and out came the story. #amwriting

Finally got my hands on Tiny T. Rex and the Impossible Hug! The story is just as adorable as the name. Who knew a T. Rex could be so sweet? Jonathan Stutzman

"Sandra's seen a leprechaun, Eddie touched a troll, Laurie danced with witches once, Charlie found some goblins' gold. Donald heard a mermaid sing, Susy spied an elf, But all the magic I have known I've had to make myself." - Shel Silverstein

I love Canada. I love our ridiculously cold winters and our outrageously late springs. It’s still -5 over here in Tiny, but the air is fresh and I can feel the sun getting closer. #spring
