Hi Cymbria,
Your mum taught me in Ottawa in 2009 when I was living there as an exchange student from Sydney, Australia. I have kept in touch with her and absolutely adore her! I can just imagine her laughing as she told you those jokes.
I’m not sure how I stumbled across your blog- but it’s great!
All the best,
Jessica
Thanks for stumblin’ on by!
That mom of mine is truly an amazing woman! And oh so adorable too (not that I’m biased or anything lol) Growing up with poetry before breakfast always made the world seem so magical, a feeling I still hold on to as tightly as I can.
She’s actually mentioned you to me a couple of times and speaks just as glowingly. Your imagining was right on; she was giggling most mischievously when she passed on these jokes, and even cross the country here in Calgary, I had no trouble catching the twinkle in her eye
So great to from you Jessica! I’m blogging at blankcanvasliving.com now, hence the ridiculously late reply here. Just watch out for those Walmart parking lots! I’m sure Michelle will be stoked you’ll be around in Sept. She thinks the world of you
