The 'Peg Prelims

You know your children have not grown up in Winnipeg when they are fascinated by Canadian geese. When your son puts some grass in a bowl to give to the goose in the field next door. When your daughter thinks they’re cute and wants to pet a nesting mother goose. And when goose poop on the sidewalk seems weird and even funny. We have three weeks to teach our kids the truth about Canadian geese.
Notwithstanding our feathered-education plan, the first few days here in Winnipeg have been quite agreeable. Some highlights have been:
Evrest – the water slide, the zoo, help building the swing-set, and Gido’s tractor;
Jovi – warm weather, hide-and-go-seek, cooking with Baba, and lot’s of snuggling;
Britt – sleeping in, sunshine, shopping, and family adventures;
Jeremy – ping-pong with pops, playing games, catching up, and reading.
We are four days in, and already we feel that the days are passing too quickly.
Pray that we may be intentional with the time and people God has given to us.
