Short list

 These are on the short list. I get college vibes with the cap and legal ones without; what about you? 

The winner will be announced later this Spring....

Beep beep!

 She did it! A year older than her dad, 21 years younger than her mum 

- and her sibling just isn't interested. 

Congratulations, Sophie! Can't wait to see what roads you travel!!

Graphically colourful

It was a father-daughter outing to the AGO on a winter weekend. Keith Haring is always spectacular!

Grade 9 retreat

 Yes, you read that right. Grade 9 retreat. Sophie didn't have hers when she started high school but that didn't stop her and a team of resilient Grade 12s from organising a smashing 3 day retreat for incoming Grade 9s. I won't share photos of them here but a few non-identifiable highlights.

Hitting her stride/stroke

Working on her J-stroke with Dad in Algonquin

Heading to Toronto Island for the Longboat 10k
(her first)

And completing it - 4th in her age group! (And said she ran slowly to stay with her pal...)

 

Back to school(s) for Sophie

It was back to school (last edition) for our Grade 12 this Tuesday (traditional dinner of choice was: a salad and a dessert pizza!)

 

And then back to dance school on Saturday - just 3 classes a week + YMI + Nutcracker....

A Sebba summer

This teen (for only a few more weeks...) was rarely spotted outdoors but when it happened, it was magnificent!
