Road trip! This morning, I drove about an hour west of #Edmonton to Blueberry School in Parkland County. There, I had the chance to read to Ms. Theresa Engel-Wood's amazing Grade 1 students, who had brainstormed FORTY questions to ask me. (My favourite? "Is your job more electrical or explosive?") #ParklandCounty #Blueberry #RobertMunsch #SenateofCanada #Canada #cdnpoli #yeg

We tried to keep gifts minimal, but Celestine was excited to find Robert Munsch books left by Santa in her stocking. I loved these books when I was a kid, so I'm looking forward to reading Murmel, Murmel, Murmel with her.
