Hello, sweet babies! My local CBC afternoon show had me on yesterday about my new podcast, The Losers Guild.
Take a listen to the interview here.
Mainstreet host Matt Rainnie is maybe the nicest man ever?

Ismael's fourth birthday
Dear diary,
My son Ismael is already four years old. He loves being a big boy now and is looking forward to going to school with his older brothers. So sweet to see them grow up.
The childeren are all very excited when daddy makes a cake. He makes the best ones. Then the celebration, and after that they can finaly eat cake.
My big boy!
We thought it was time for a new familyportrait. With my boys growing up so fast we need to make time for that.
Since it was the weekend we all went to the parc. They boys loved playing in the spaceship. Ismael was so excited to play with the big boys on the big playset. There is a five year age gap between him and Rafael. Ismael is always looking up to his older brother.
Love, Charlotte

🍂 + 💕 for Charlotte
Charlotte: As for the second question, I do like physical affection, especially through expressing it by cuddling. My boundaries... well I usually only do express physical affection to those I’m close with, like Sam.
