Have you ever wanted to do something, but found yourself never able to do it because of lack of time?

Take this blog for example, I was going to make it my goal to blog away my life and share the infinite knowledge I’ve accumulated over the years, and today I got a summary of page news and realized it’s been years since I’ve updated it.

The last time I had anything to say I had 2 children, and now I have 5. That’s correct ladies and gentlemen, 5 children.

It’s hard to imagine my life 11 years ago. Sitting with my wife in the doctor’s office being told, you have a 6% chance of conception, only to turn around 11 years later and have 5 children. We are truly blessed. I have 4 beautiful daughters and my number 5, a strapping young son.

Not much has changed in our household since 2021. I’d like to think I’ve become a better father, and husband but I can’t be the judge of that.

Let’s see… How to summarize the past 5 years…

• We had 2 more girls.

This is one of my most favorite shots of my girls. The photographer is a long time friend who absolutely captured them perfectly

• We had a son

• We were gifted a trailer (camper)

• We celebrated (including this current year) 22 years of marriage (the year isn’t over yet though lol)

• I celebrated 27 years at Bell Canada (mind blown)
• I’m nearing my 50th birthday, and as my daughters like to remind me, “Dad, you’re halfway to 100.”

I’m sure there is so much more to talk about, but let’s start there. Baby steps getting back into the bloglife.

As I said, I enjoy writing and sharing, and it’s not for lack of anything, but at the end of the day, I end up on the couch and I go into shutdown mode.

The adventure continues…
