1. Today is the Terry Fox Run for Olivia and Sam.
2. Yesterday, as is the case most days, Olivia spent a couple of hours outside with her neighbour friend riding bikes up and down the block


So last night, when she was saying her prayers, Olivia said: "And I'm thankful that I could get all that exercise because I have the Terry Fox Run tomorrow"
***On a separate note, here's an example of our long-term planning and frugality. James just asked me to pass him a box of staples, and I did, and then I remembered that we bought these staples as part of a larger package at Sam's Club in Houston BEFORE Coleman was born...so, like, 14 years ago!! I think we've gone through about 4 or 5 staplers, but we've never bought new staples.

What if you calculate how much time & effort to pack and ship those staples from Texas, to Germany, to Calgary. Does it still save you money?
I'm so impressed with your staple story, and btw, Olivia is a doll, isn't she?!
