Goodbyes from one of the kids in my life....

Since I have heard about the job, one thing I know I am going to miss is the kids that have been part of my life while living in Toronto. Some of these kids I have known since they were born and now they are 2 or 3 or even older!!! So lately I have been spending time with some of these kids....I know I will miss them and their families as I start this new adventure in my life. Today I received a card from a little boy...it was so sweet I had to take a photo and post it for you all to see!

the envelope it self was a work of art!!!!(the front)


this is me and the kids... (i'm not sure what we are holding onto...but I suppose I'll have to ask next time! :)

There is a lot going on...
let me try to explain: on the left side of the page---the girls are dancing on the side (in pink) that's the artists 3 sisters and another girl that lives on the street....
the boys are at the bottom (in blue).... everyone has the same kind of hat!!!
(included in the group of boys is the artist, the boys from across the street and another boy at his school that I also know and babysit for on occaison!)....
then we need to move onto the huge BED that I am in sleeping...(aparently that's what an almost 6 year old thinks you do in the north!!! SLEEP--or maybe he knows me better than I thought!)
in the middle there is me in front of an igloo.... and the top is the sun and stars and moon.....
pretty amazing eh? I think so! :)

Heya, following the blog....I can't believe you're moving out of the apartment. I like that apartment! It feels weird. More for you though, huh?

The coat looks great! You will SO value the fur once you get up there. On Tuesday it was -37 with the windchill. :) Good times up here....

Looks like the little figures are holding onto the strings of happy helium balloons.
