I am turning the reigns over to my son Joseph. Let's see what an 11-year-old has to say. Heeeere's Joseph!

Joseph and his ratties playing video games.
What I have to say is that the blue jays are going to win the world series this season 100 percent.

Anything else, Joseph?

Well, I learned that lesson. Didn't I? Let's try Phillip now.

Hey, Phillip, wanna be a guest blogger? Here's Phillip!
Picture
The only picture Phillip would approve for this blog post.
Im a three sport player. I'm a basketball player- point guard. I'm a baseball player- short stop and centre field. And I'm a soccer player- goalie. I wish to become a professional NBA player for the Toronto Raptors.

​Anything else you want to say, Phillip?

So, I'm learning real quick that I can't outsource this blog to the boys. It's a good thing I have three kids! Hey, Hailey, wanna give it a whirl?
Picture
It's a Hailey!
Hi, this is Hailey. I'm gonna talk about Sonic! Sonic is an African pygmy hedgehog. He is very friendly (To people that don't think he is a scary porcupine). He is adorable and eats cat food (Hedgehog food sometimes has bad stuff in it). The food is called Blue Buffalo cat food. He is also nocturnal but I still take him out during the day, otherwise he won't be around me at all and that is bad. He is a punkrocker sometimes. That means that he is not full on hissy, he just has his front quills half on his face. It is cute. Sonic is very cute, friendly, and adorable.

Next on to Simba! Simba is a Aussiedoodle! He is adorable and a floof monster. He finds it funny to steal our things sometimes he counter-surfs. That means that he jumps up on the counter and searches for things to steal. He finds it hilarious, and if we don't notice he comes to us barks and then makes us chase him.

A bit about me I'm 11 years old. When I grow up I used to want to be a singer but then realized it would be stressful because I probably wouldn't be able to chill because I would be famous, so now I want to be a writer like my mom. I think that if I am a writer I will be able to put my creative thoughts onto paper. I have come up with a lot of ideas for books. I mean I could start a career as a writer Now! A couple of my Ideas are:​
  • A book about a hedgehog who has superpowers but also is in a movie.
  • A book that is a girls diary it starts with her past but leads into present time.
Me and my mom are in the middle of a book (Not a chapter book) it will be a really good book. When it comes out please buy it, it will make me happy.

I find it hilarious how in this picture his foot is in his face.

This picture shows how Simba is ridiculous. And it looks like his head is detached it should be somewhere else.
So, what I've learned here is that if I want a guest blogger from my house, it should always be Hailey!

I'm Back! (And overusing brackets)

It seems fitting that my last post was on Passover, and my new one is coming out the day of the first seder. To say that a lot has happened in five years is a hell of an understatement. I suppose it's time for an update. Where to begin?

Let's start by completely ignoring the elephant in the room, and talk about some happy stuff, eh? In the past five years, we moved TWICE! I absolutely hate moving, and moving twice with triplets is no picnic. But we are happy in our new home, and I told our friend Adrian that he'd have to bury me in this house. Not necessarily because I love it so much (I do, btw), but because I hate moving that much. 

In other happy news, our pet population has absolutely exploded! Not literally, of course, but those of you who follow me on Instagram, can attest to just how many animals now live in this house. So check out our furry friends:
​

This is our dog, Simba. He's an Aussiedoodle with a snarky sense of humour. How can a dog be snarky? Trust me, he can. He steals stuff, not to eat, but because he finds it hilarious to make you chase him.
Picture
This is Sonic the Hedgehog (one of the only acceptable names for a hedgehog according to my daughter). He hisses at you when he gets mad, and makes his face look like an angry punkrocker. She finds it adorable.
Picture
This is Stitch, Phillip's gerbil (or brobil, as he called him). He is silent, doesn't stink, is cute, and low-maintenance. All in all, the perfect pet!
Picture
This is Joesph with his rats Loki and GusGus. They are playful and cuddly, and he adores them. There is much more rat related news, but I think I will save that for the next blog. (Ooh! A cliffhanger!)

As for that elephant I mentioned earlier, we were getting through the pandemic fairly unscathed. And we were looking forward to hosting our first seder in so long! Just think of it! People! In our house! An actual family dinner! Huzzah! But then... (I think you can all see where this is going...) BOOM! COVID came and hit us in the face. It sucks, most of us feel like garbage, but we're surviving. So, let's see if we can eat a 15lb turkey between the five of us. (Don't worry, I froze the brisket.

Until next time. ( I promise I won't take five years to update this time.)
