 If you ever wonder how we make it through tax season…. well, there is alot of prayer, occasionally Divine intervention, often raised voices, sometimes even lowered expectations!   But you should never forget Monty Python via Youtube.   I hope you enjoy this, its one of the best and contrary to rumours otherwise…. I do not own a Lion Tamer Hat (anymore)

Happy New Year!

Is this just funny if your sleep deprived?

May 26th 2009 our lives changed FOREVER with the birth of Stella May MacDonald.   She has delivered fully on the expectations (which were not small) Proverbs 17:6 Grandchildren are the crown of the aged, and the glory of children is their fathers.

Genesis 48:11 Israel said to Joseph, “I never expected to see your face, and behold, God has let me see your children as well.” Exodus 20:12 “Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be prolonged in the land which the LORD your God gives you. Proverbs 13:22 A good man leaves an inheritance to his children’s children, And the wealth of the sinner is stored up for the righteous.

I have a few…but a simple one is…own no backhouse! May sound silly and if you really needed one, the fact that I burned this one to the ground would be a problem, but since the cottage has an indoor facility, lets just say…it was redundant. Truth is, I have issues! When I was just 7, wearing my toronto maple leafs pj’s I stumbled on the steps, carrying a pot to this burning structure….. I went down, the pot went up, the contents came down and the LEAFS havent won a cup in 43 years…. and therein lies all the motivation to work hard, earn enough money to buy the family cottage and then burn the backhouse to the ground! There….I feel much better.

Thanks for listening.
