It’s Carolyn’s Birthday !<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Carolyn\u2019s Birthday is May 28th. She has shared her birthday memory with us: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOne birthday I really remember was when I was quarantined in my room for ten days because I went to North York Hospital at the beginning of the SARS outbreak in 2003.   I stayed in my room for ten days, it got boring sometimes.  People used to wave at me in the window in my door<\/em>. <\/em><\/strong>A birthday memory is when I turned 40 and 50. I had 2 parties when I turned 50, one with my family in Cornwall and one with my friends in Toronto.  It was special for me because I saw friends and family that I hadn\u2019t seen for a long time.  We played games, visited and ate cake.\u201d <\/em> <\/em>I guess you will probably be celebrating in your room again so you will have to zoom with your family and friends. I will be thinking of you on that day! <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let\u2019s all wish Carolyn a very happy birthday and if you can, send her a birthday email wish!! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mother’s Day<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

May is Mother\u2019s Day month and we wish our mothers, and those who are like mothers to us, a very Happy Mother\u2019s Day.  Mother’s Day is special to Samantha because she has both her mother and grandmother living with her! Carolyn is very lucky to have a sister, who is like a second mother to her. Let\u2019s be creative when celebrating the day with all of our \u201cmothers\u201d this month!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Victoria Day<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Victoria Day is a federal holiday which falls on the Monday before May 25th. It  was established to celebrate Queen Victoria\u2019s birthday and now to celebrate the current sovereign\u2019s birthday.  It is unofficially  the beginning of the summer season.  It is a long weekend, also called May Two Four weekend.  May 24th weekend is Jayme’s birthday (Samantha\u2019s younger sister)! As with many people it is the weekend we open our cottage. It is usually celebrated with summer activities such as having barbeques.  We have to find a different way to celebrate the day again this year. We can be outside with our families but probably with no fireworks to watch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
