Ode To Life: Strawberry Picking Edition!

Last weekend we went Strawberry picking for the first time (we’ve gone blueberry, raspberry, pumpkin, and even Christmas tree picking) and this one was one of our favorite activities so far.While I was picking them, I ate around 20000 strawberries with Nico and Oli, so I pretty much achieved the record of fastest strawberry mama eater of Montreal, without a doubt.Celebrating this lovely day, I got inspired in a special Ode to life, this time with a Strawberry picking edition (:

    I used to take my kids to pick strawberries, it was both fun and exhausting! I enjoyed reading your Ode to Life!
