Indiana Jones finds Greely Ontario

tulips_103.jpgThis bouquet is for a mom, dad and little boy who visited a model home on Saturday, June 21.  The house is part of five model homes being featured in Greeley (south end of Ottawa Canada).  The address is 1486 Sandy Beach Court.  Built by Villa Homes. See MLS #695613.

As you can imagine, going up and down stairs, taking shoes on and off, and the summer heat can be tiring.  It is always a concern when children visit model homes as the boundaries are different than when they are in their own homes.  I have seen children running at top speed up and down stairs, touching walls and furniture with sticky fingers, bouncing on beds, opening and closing every door and slamming some - just because.  However, not all children feel compelled to be free spirits.  In the situation on Saturday, the mom asked the boy to sit down in the foyer (which was very large) against a wall and to make sure that his legs were not extended out to trip anyone.  Once seated, he pulled out his DS Nintendo and started his game.  I was curious about what he was playing.  He was enthralled with Indiana Jones. 

When his parents were ready to leave he put the game on standby, said good-bye to me and went on to the next home to continue his game. 

 Three Cheers for Indiana Jones, mom, dad and the boy who behaved.

    I am impressed with all your Zinges, your Canada Day message and the words about the little family.
