Before I start, I realized today that the Comment box wasn’t working on French posts. I apologize for this, it’s now fixed! Also, as you might have read in earlier posts, I first write my posts in French. Reading the “original version” is usually better when possible, so if you know French, I would suggest reading the French posts as they are probably more well-written.

Je continue aujourd’hui avec le partage des beaux moments de Zackaël. Je retourne 4 ans en arrière, le 26 février 2017, la journée de sa fête de 3 ans. J’avais pris une vidéo le matin lorsqu’il s’amusait à sauter et à courir sur le sofa. C’était son activité favorite. Il pouvait passer ½ heure à gambader comme ceci sur le sofa.

Dans la vidéo, je ne me rappelle pas pourquoi, mais nous entendons Maxandre en arrière-plan qui tente de convaincre Zackaël que ce n’était pas sa fête. Peut-être pour taquiner Zackaël? Nous avons ajouté des légendes à la vidéo. Il est tellement mignon!

How I wish I could go back and be on the sofa with him so he could throw himself in my arms, or even jump on me. I used to take him in my arms and sing to him “en bateau, mamie mamie”; he loved it so much when I bounced him on my leg singing this song. I think he must have learned the song at daycare.

As he got older, he even improved his “sofa skills”. At 3 years old, we would see him running and jumping on the sofa. When he was 4, he started hopping even higher on the sofa. Sometimes we would come into the room and see him standing on his head on the couch. He would sit there on his head for minutes at a time, I don’t know how he did it. And at 5, he would use the couch to do all kinds of somersaults.

Zackaël has always been a little climber and a jumper. A natural gymnast. Watching him wasn’t always easy for me though, he would nearly give me heart attacks. I always had to watch him and tell him “be careful Zackaël!”. I was so scared he would fall when he did this, but luckily it never happened.

Thank you to everyone who will wear green tomorrow or make any commemorative gesture. I just brought tonight the big photo in front of her memorial tree to Le Prélude school. Don’t hesitate to hang a ribbon or light in the tree. If your child knew Zackaël and would like to take a picture with the big photo, there is no problem.


For tomorrow’s post, the choice is yours! I invite you to participate in the survey! Thank you for participating!

C’est tout pour l’instant!
