Celebrating 10+ years of #DoTheDaniel
Who doesn’t love to dress up every now and then, so you can go and get treated extra special for a day? So that’s why, on Saturday May 5th, I grabbed my friend Jenn and we headed off for a day at the races at Woodbine Race Track! With their 2nd Annual Derby Day in effect, we were given the opportunity to experience some live race-day action.
I fully recognize how lucky I am for the relationship that I have with my mother. Not everyone gets the chance to have something like this, for many different reasons.

Where I learnt to be a good person. To give the world my best. To have hope against all odds. To be kind. To love unconditionally.
It all started with my Mom. And this Mother’s Day I wanted to make sure I reminded her of how important she really is. Every day I am a better man because of my mom, and I have the perfect ways for YOU to make your mom or mothers in your life feel special with the perfect gift ideas from Hallmark Canada.
