If there's one person who will miss 967 Colleen Drive the most, it is the little boy. He will miss having a big backyard (and frontyard where he picks flowers and catches bees every morning) for his playground. We'll have to improvise a little playground in our 2-bedroom apartment, how? I Don't know.


After we leave, this backyard will be empty and quiet. No little tikes toys. No little boy's giggles. No little man screaming and shouting to his heart's delight. The lake, the hunky neighbors, the ducks, the birds and the greens will miss him and his tiny loud voice and laughter...
While my son, hubby and I were watching Transformers the Movie (this is a 2x a day routine for all of us, that's how addicted our toddler is with the movie ), my son blurted out all of a sudden, "baba wook! (look!) nice engine!". He was referring to the scene when bumblebee was malfunctioning in the middle of the road and Mikhaela opened the engine to check on the transmission. But in the movie, engine nor transmission were not mentioned. He probably overheard his dad talking to a friend on the phone while discussing used engines and transmissions a friend bought from midwest auto recycling. We really have to be careful with our conversations as kids' brains are such sponges. The absorb anything easily.
