I (Bethany) was lucky to spend 4 days last week in Ottawa for both "business" and "pleasure"...Dr. Winnie Dunn was presenting a workshop on her "Sensory Processing" assessment tool, hosted by the Ottawa Children's Treatment Centre.
Coincidently, my cousin Gillian was also hosting a surprise 40th Anniversary party for my Aunt Joan and Uncle Fred over the weekend. The timing worked out perfectly that I was able to fly into Ottawa on Wed night, attend the course on Thurs and Friday (which was excellent by the way!!), and then head into Richmond for a brief but wonderful visit with the family: including Grandpa, Joan and Fred, Gillian and Warren, Mom and Dad, as well as Joel and Janet and Malcolm, and Amy and Jay and Nadine!
It was certainly a busy time, but so worthwhile! It was so great to see everyone--most of whom it's been way too long since our last visit. And of course, the babies provided non-stop entertainment for everyone! It is times like these that really reinforce the importance of family, and make me wish we lived closer and could see everyone more often. If only I could convince my work to pay for a few "business" trips!
