I went to a convetion in Toronto about 5 days ago and I went as Bulbasaur from Pokemon. Everyone thought I was cute and I got about 30 pictures!

Pet Mouse

In September, I'm getting a pet mouse! Whenever mom lets me play with the mouse, I'll be as gentle as I can while playing with it. This is the reason why I'm getting a pet mouse: my favorite animals are mice and I have 10 toy ones at my house.

1Day, 2 Movies

On Easter Sunday, we watched Flushed Away in the afternoon and Zoom in the evening. Usually, when we have no school, we are only allowed 3 45-minute game/tv times, one in the morning, one afternoon and one evening. Mom and dad said that it was not good for our eyes to stare at the screen for too long, and that we needed to be outside for fresh air everyday. I could not believe it when, after the first movie was over, mom suggested that we would watch another one in the evening. I was not going to ask any question. 2 movies in 1 day was just fine by me.

I like books

When I was little, mommy read me lots of books. My favourite one was Pikachu's Day. Now I am older, mommy still read to me, but I also read by myself. I like the book about faces and the book about cars.

Maple Syrup

Our breakfast this morning was waffles with our HOME MADE MAPLE SYRUP! The maple syrup tasted sort of like cotton candy mixed with normal maple syrup.

We put taps on 3 trees Saturday morning. By Sunday afternoon, when we returned from swimming at the Y, we had a jug full of sap. Dad said it was about 10 litres. Dad boiled the sap all Sunday evening and all Monday. By dinner time on Monday, mom announced that the maple syrup was done. Shade and I got to lick the pot which was used for boiling down the sap. Delicious!

Daddy thought that the syrup was not thick enough. After dinner, he poured it back into a small pot to boil on the stove. It boiled over and CAUGHT FIRE! Daddy had put out the fire real quick and cleaned up the mess before mom came home from her yoga class. But he told her all about the adventure. Mom did not get mad. She just laughed and said that we should still have at least enough for the following morning.

Sure enough, there was some left over after Shade and I had each had 4 waffles, Moochie 2, and mom and dad 3 each. We had a big breakfast!
