What I'm Listening To...

** Musical Marvels **

This week, the vibrant beats of "Burn" by Ellie Goulding have been our morning anthem on the way to school. Its pulsating rhythm and uplifting lyrics ignite a sense of energy and optimism, setting the perfect tone for embracing the day's adventures ahead. Whether it's the catchy chorus or the infectious melody, this song has become our go-to pick-me-up as we tackle the day with enthusiasm and gusto. Take a listen HERE.

What I'm Watching...

**Screen Time Escapes**

We've embarked on a journey through the golden age of '80s movies, and this week, we immersed ourselves in the timeless classic, "The Karate Kid." Daniel-san's journey from an ordinary teenager to a karate champion under the guidance of Mr. Miyagi captivated our hearts once again. From the iconic crane kick to the enduring message of perseverance and resilience, every moment reminded us of the power of determination and the importance of finding balance in life's challenges. What should we watch next? Maybe Goonies...

Where I'm Dining...

**Culinary Journeys**

My son and I have started having some morning time together at the cozy haven of Dara Bistro in Cumberland, where the aroma of freshly grilled biscuits and the sweetness of homemade raspberry jam welcomed us with open arms. Each bite evoked a sense of warmth and nostalgia as we savored the simple pleasures of good food and heartfelt conversations. Check them out HERE, they also serve Dinner!

What The Kids Are Up To...

**More Family Fun Time**
Last weekend, we traded the slopes for some good old-fashioned family Kickball. Laughter filled the air as we enjoyed a spirited game together, creating memories that will last a lifetime. As we gear up for another weekend of adventures, we're reminded of the joy that comes from spending quality time together and embracing the simple joys of life.

What I'm Reading...

**Literary Escapes**
In the world of children's literature, "Harold and the Purple Crayon" by Crockett Johnson has been a delightful read. One line in particular has stayed with me: "He came up thinking fast." It's a reminder that sometimes, when faced with unexpected challenges, quick thinking is key to finding our way back to solid ground.
