Fall 2018


Hmmmmm this blog is really really taking a hit lately . Using it only for recording keeping purposes until beauty graduates from highschool this year in June 2019 so can record her prom and her big surgery and be able to publish her at grad on top of a printed blog book like her brothers had . It’s only fair our beautiful girl gets that too !


Recap of what is going on this fall of 2018 as there is lots )

Chase in second year jmsb ans in case comp which he loves . Very very entrepreneurial guy and lots of talks about his future etc and trusting him to do what is right for him while strongly strongly pushing university and finishing . He will I am sure but a bit of a battle lately . Will be interesting to see where all ends up and i bet in the perfect place . Have so much confidence and trust in this guy to make the decisions that are good for his life
Working also on him being a good roommate as a 20 yr old living at home . Gets worse and then better and then worse and better . Overall he makes us so happy and all works out but hard letting go ! No more family dinners as courses all evening of the week ! New thing is having a thing with Spanish girls ! Taught himself full Spanish this summer and looking for opportunities To practice verbal and non verbal o guess !


Bear - loving second year cégep and did some great volenteering for big  TED . Waiting to hear answer for awesome trip to Belize for marina bio course . Uni applications this year . Huge year for him !!! This kid is sooooo organized . As chase likes to say “ he has his shit together this boy ! “
He totally does . Becoming easier and easier to live with and less stubborn and really finding our way at this age that can be tough to navigate as parents . And bear is in love since sept 2018 wish a lovely girl sandrine he met a year ago . She is a sweetie and they seem very happy to have made a decision to move forward with their relationship

Beauty
Ah beauty ... hard hard hard her growing up . Hard on family life . She is a tough teen . Listens and obeys rules for sure thank god but doesn’t show us love which makes me want to cry all the time ( and often I do )
I don’t give up . I know she is worth fighting for and I will but man she does not make this easy

In solo compétions and will do 3 before surgery we hope .
Teaches hip hop at h4l . Takes jazz tech
Studies more and more as opted for high math and sciences and struggles but persists a lot ( and complains a lot )
Over Simon thank god ! Seeing a new guy and goes on dates
Surgery is around Week of March 25 and will have medical exemption for last semester . Some big stuff coming up for her and cégep applications too

She and Cassie coming to Turks with us in 3 weeks !!


Us - work work work
Have never ever ever done this on our lives . Together we work mornings weekends and evenings all the time . Together . All new . 10 month some . 6 months a lot . 4 months massively intensely .
Book is launched and got the title of more than could have hoped for 1 international bestseller ! Worth every effort !
Company launches on a few days oct 10 and website is amazing
Sweat tears and massive amounts of work

If I could guess ? My end of 2020 ( 2021 ) at latest this will be a millionaire dollar company :))
I work to get what I want and this will be no exception

Hubby and I in a good place ! He is stinging on many very visible events for choir ( televised , Justin Trudeau coming etc ) and we spend tons of time alone at cottage which is quite fun ! Miss kids sometimes but usually have Friday night dinners and some good times planned out carefully . A new stage and a good one and far better than thought what would be . We are doing a slow withdrawal from family life so empty nest won’t be such a shock !


That’s it for now . Signing off to read be copy have in my hands of my book ! So very very proud
