Now an Award Winning Blog!

I could not be happier - I've won my first award! I've often visited other blogs and stared enviously at their award - well no more. You are looking at a blog worthy of the prestigious Be The Blog award! I will wear it with pride and strive to live up to all the award encompasses. Here it is:


Be The Blog award


As well, I've included it my sidebar, which I'll admit is a bit of a mess right now. Well, housecleaning will have to wait I'm afraid. I would be remiss if I did not thank Bucky for nominating me - I've admired his blog from afar for some time now. If I understand correctly, this also enables me to bestow the honour on others - something that due to time I will have to do later. I really should not even be here now but I was so excited I had to tell the world. I picked up my new car today and now this. If you do not already have this award and would like me to consider you - please drop me a line. In addition, I still have Canucklehead.ca magnets available to those interested. (First come -- first serve.)


In closing, I just must pass on this story that really embodies the joy of parenthood. I think it is just great and is 100% true:


Canucklehead Jr. woke up last night at about 5:00am. He was crying a little and saying, “Get them … get them!”
My loving and nurturing wife went over and tried to soothe him assuming of course that he was having a little nightmare: “It’s okay buddy – you are just having a bad dream. It’s okay …”
Nicholas replied, “No mama, Pancakes! Go get them …. I’m hungry.”
It’s impossible to get mad when you are laughing. He was of course half-asleep but it was too funny.
He finally went back to sleep but at 7:00am he was at the foot of the bed asking for pancakes, which of course he eventually got.
What a marvelous age!

I'm out for now: stick, ice, cheers!
