We were proud Torontonians for nearly 10 years, moving every year or two until 2007 when we dipped our toes into the real estate market and bought a townhouse. There we stayed until we found out there was a little Lemon to be added to our family. We traded the 2-bedroom townhouse in an "up and coming" area for an 80-year-old, 3-bedroom, semi-detached house in one of Toronto most sought after neighborhoods where we called home for three years.
It was a great three years living in such an amazing neighbourhood, but fate stepped in and offered us an opportunity to move closer to Grama and Grampa who are a huge (!!) help with the little Lemon, so we packed up our 1800 square feet and traded up for 2600 square feet and a whole lot more family within 5 minutes. Max continues to work in Toronto, as well as across the country, and I'm lucky enough be able to work part-time as a freelance writer, part-time at the cutest little children's boutique you can imagine, and also spend a few days a week at home with Emmerson!
How luck can one family get?
Here we are in Boston for our first family trip - May 2012!
