It's Family Day today in Ontario and we decided to ignore the cold rain, make an effort to broaden our son's horizons and indulge him in the kind of rich educational and cultural activities that our government surely had in mind when it dreamt up Ontario's newest public holiday.
We first treated him to some fine food.
Then we allowed him the opportunity to observe the awesome power of Mother Nature close up.

And finally we made sure he had a chance to reconnect with the people and things in his life that matter most.

Okay, okay.
So we took the little stinker to the mall and let him walk around for a bit.
But you know what? He had a blast.
Happy Family Day!
