Waterbabies






All Nico could think about these last few weeks, was getting up to Meech Lake in Le Gatineau- the "mountains" 20 minutes outside of downtown Ottawa. (California Girl thinks these are mere mole hills, but I'm not here to split hairs.) The Gatineau area is beautifully green with forests of birch and other trees, wildflowers and cool, still lakes. Zoe jumped in and swam until her lips were blue and chattery. Julian on the other hand was a bit cranky this afternoon, and not interested in putting his bare buns in the water. Soon, my pet, soon.

This picture is SO good. It was published in the Ottawa Citizen the week of August 11, and we were all thrilled!
