A day at the Zoo!!

Today we headed out to the zoo with my sister, brother in law and niece. It was a beautiful, cold day. It was a great day for a walk! Our monkeys had a great time running around looking at all the animals!



Here are the two of them relaxing on a bench, together!!!

Madeline showing us the animals, I think this was a wild hog. She kept saying Oink, Oink!!!! Very cute!

Here is Addysen jumping in the puddles, trying out her new boots! She thought this was great! Every puddle we went by, she had to try out!



Madeline's favorite part of the zoo was the Giraffe exhibit! She kept tapping on the glass trying to get the giraffe to turn around and look at her! It was adorable!

What a great day we had, thanks T & D for inviting us to the zoo! We will definitley have to do it again!

UPDATE on NEW BUISNESS!!!





I am so excited to say that the first day was great! The kids had a wonderful time of playing, doing crafts and circle time (they especially loved the frog song and dance). My goal now is to open up my Tuesday (At this point I have 5 spots available for 2 year olds). I am also considering opening up Friday as well. Please let your friends know about the program and if you or a friend would like more information, please email me at trista@sowinglittleseeds.com .


I can't wait to share the program with other families.

Tea Time with Daddy

Madeline and Daddy having tea time! They were having a great time!
This is such good tea!

I just thought this was the most precious thing, I think the poem sums up exactly what I was feeling at that moment! Daddy and Madeline time is such a special time!

Blue collar days are long and hard.
He skips a thousand lunches.
But he is never too exhausted for
The one who loves him “bunches!”

She slides her tiny fingers in
His calloused, manly hands,
And begs him to come watch as she
Performs a silly dance.

His weary eyes light up with joy
He grins a daddy’s smile,
And he is captivated by
This gifted, pretty child.

Dinner’s on, but it can wait.
He’s been invited to
Imaginary biscuits
And tea. “One lump or two?”

I watch this grown man fill the chair,
His frame three times its size.
He winks at me with kindness
That makes tears fill my eyes.

I knew this man was special
The day I said “I do”,
But now that he’s a father,
Our daughter knows it, too.

Sowing little Seeds 2 year old Program


I have started a new buisness called Sowing little Seeds Children's Programs. I have decided to start my program with 2 year old and see where it takes me. I am starting my program on March 27, I have a full class of 2 year olds ( I am only taking 5 children per class). My program is an hour and a half long with songs, stories, crafts and playtime. I am looking forward to this program and look forward to seeing how it grows in the coming months. If you are interested in more information on my program, please email me at sowinglittleseeds@telus.net :) I would love to add a class on Tuesday mornings, please let know if you are interested.
