Two fabulous birthday dates! ❤️❤️

11/01/2024

Thanks to everyone who has reached out to check on us. We are all safe after some intense storms in the province of Valencia.

The city centre of Valencia, where we live, experienced very little rain or flooding but the small towns around us were hit very hard. As we learn more about what these communities need, I will share ways to support.

The country is observing three days of mourning for all the lives lost.

Spot the dads!!!

A lot of people here, expats and locals alike, talk about living here for the work life balance. The parks are a great example of how this shows up. Everyday when school gets out, the parks are filled with kids and their dads.

Even the dads who claim to have busy, stressful jobs are still able to leave work go pick their kids up from the bus and take them to the park right after school. And I have yet to meet one of them who seemed stressed out or upset about the task. In fact, many of them say they live in Valencia so that they can have this kind of balance in their day. ☀️

On my own this week.....😳😳😳

Dave is headed back to North America for some work this week and next, so I'm on my own for the first time to manage all the pieces in Spain.

I'm a bit nervous to honest. With two soccer schedules in different directions and a four-year-old that needs to go to bed at a reasonable time it's definitely going to be hectic. Just want to send a huge thank you to Aunt Mare, Uncle ray, Alison, Fatma and all the family and friends that made our soccer schedule manageable at home. Not sure how I'm going to do it without you this week.

Something that I have noticed in all of us, since arriving here, is that we instantaneously became more aware and grateful for our lives in Canada . Our friends and support network are at the top of that list. ❤️❤️

New family tradition. Sunday beach days ❤️ This isn't something we ever did in Ontario but here it seems the weather and water are always perfect for a beach day. Sundays most things are closed so heading to the beach feels like the thing that everybody is doing before the start of a new week.

1st day of JK, grade 9 and A levels (grade 11). ❤️

So much change for these three today and I am so proud of each of them. New school and school system, new friends, new country. 😳😳😳

Happy Father's Day to the most loving, compassionate and inspiring man we know.

When you came into my life 10 years ago I couldn't have imagined how much one person could bring. You are a gift and the kids and I love you to bits! ❤️❤️❤️

Taking time to celebrate what an amazing guy my dad was, today, on his birthday. 😍😍😍

For anyone who knew and loved my dad, celebrate him today by taking a little extra time for joy. Call a friend you love, raise a toast, play a game of crib, hug your kids extra tight or just have a good laugh.

Spread some joy to others the way he always did for all of us ❤️❤️❤️

Love you dad.

Today is a big day for me!!

The Umbrella Effect is finally available!!!

umbrellaproject.co/the-umbrella-effect-book/

Exactly 3 years ago I committed to writing this book. Little did I know the obstacles that would follow... a baby and COVID just to name a few.

But looking back I know that is exactly why I wrote this book.

We don't know what lies ahead for ourselves or our kids.

What we do know is that there will be many unexpected plot twists, great triumphs and really tough times too and we can prepare our kids for exactly that.

This book provides a set of simple truths, strategies, conversations and perspective shifts that will help you prepare your child for whatever lies ahead of them while taking care of your own happiness too.

❤️❤️❤️ Dr. Jen
