I’ve never been a really huge fan of Halloween. As a child, I liked the idea of getting candy, of course, but what kid doesn’t? Especially since we never really had candy, per se, in our house when I was growing up. Homemade baking was more likely to cover the sweets section of our family’s food groups than chocolate bars or lollipops, and even that wasn’t enough to make it a banner event. I think it stems back to when I was 5 and I asked to be a witch that year. My mother got me the hat and cape, and put makeup on my face.

O n August 19th, 2004, I gave birth to my first child. My beautiful daughter Mia. Up until that point I lived the first 37 years of my life sans kids and pretty much did what I wanted to do when I wanted to do it. But, things changed and I became a mommy. This meant a shift in finding new adventures with my brand-new daughter! Naturally the first few weeks were just trying to find a routine with this new bundle of joy and being totally housebound was taking its toll on me. At least Luc got to go to work and be amongst adults.
