Goings on...

No, I haven't done a scrapbook page yet.  I have been downloading digikits and have some fab ideas.  I wish there were more hours in a day, between a full time job and an increasingly busy photography business... Argh...  

A few events coming up:

The Annual Caring For Kids Radiothon

The format has changed slightly this year and will air for one day on Thursday, April 30th.  Tune into the broadcast on Virgin Radio 96, CHOM 97.7 and CJAD 800.  Call in to donate, and  you may just get me on the other end!  Riley's story has been shared in previous years during the broadcast, and has been submitted for this year as well.

ABC Awards of Excellence Ball for The Children's

Tickets are now available for the year's Ball being held on Thursday, May 28th at Windsor Station.  I am looking forward to this year's theme, Motown!

Now I Lay Me Down To Sleep

I have volunteered for this very special organization, and will be working with the Montreal Children's Hospital.

Here is one of my fave photos of Riley.  Love those eyes...

What's in a name?

Are you all wondering where the name The Big Book of Riley came from?  While Riley was admitted to the hospital, he often had to go for various tests, you name it, he likely had it.  His medical chart always had to go with him, and it came to a point where it was actually larger than him.  I believe it was his principle hemotologist that came up with the name, The Big Book of Riley.  I requested a photocopy of the chart, and the Medical Records department was going to charge me approximately $800 in copies.  Yes, it was ginormous...
