The winter solstice is the shortest day and longest night of the year, marking the start of winter in the Northern Hemisphere. It's a significant astronomical event and cultural holiday, celebrated globally with festivals of light and feasting. Happy solstice! #winter #winterseason #wintervibes

Every year on November 11, I pause to remember the friends and comrades I served beside in the Canadian Armed Forces. Their courage and sacrifice remind me every day why peace matters. Take a moment to give thanks to our veterans. #remembranceday #canadianarmedforces #lestweforget #november11

“There Is Something Fishy About ed is a gem. For parents, teachers, or therapists looking to talk with kids about eating disorders/ mental health, this is a gentle, honest, & creative place to start. The story understands how kids process serious things: with play, imagination, and a lot of love."
