Happy Birthday in heaven to my sister Jill. I miss you every day, and I'll have a gin and tonic tonight in your memory. Sisters are different flowers from the same garden.

As secretary of the Rotary Literacy Foundation, we're pleased to fund this PEI Coalition on Women's Leadership project to work with Island youth to create accessible content to build civic understanding across platforms.
We're helping the next generation to lead informed, democratic participation.

HRH Maud is 6 today. Words can't express how much joy (and chaos) she brings.

My "assistant ", as I try to sort recipes. So far she has confiscated my pen, stolen a shiny paper clip, demanded ear skritchums, and volunteered as a paperweight. It's going well. Payment in treats of course.

Maybe Maud can help you find it.

It's "Gotcha Day". Five years ago, Maud left her cage at the Humane Society to live with me. She's my little ray of sunshine, and she keeps me on my toes. #adoptdon'tshop

Happy 150th birthday to Lucy Maud Montgomery! Her books still resonate with so many readers. I hope that she would approve that I named my cat Maud in her honour. (Montgomery had 4 cats)

Show me your cat and what they are named for.

The first session of the 35th Rotary Youth Parliament is officially underway after the Speech from the Throne, delivered by His Honour Wassim Salouman Lt. Governor of Prince Edward Island. The students were also greeted by Speaker Darlene Comption. I'm so proud of all of these students.

And, that's a wrap. 75 tours and 800+ guests later, the Church tour season has ended. From the ghost story, to the story of the window obtained as the result of an election wager, I've enjoyed sharing the tales of the beautiful Kirk of St James.

Happy Birthday in Heaven to my sister Jill. I miss you so much, and not a day goes by that I don't think about you. Sisters are different flowers from the same garden.
