Dedicated to the general sights, news and funny happenings in the wonderful city of Windsor
Yesterday while at Wilistead Park, I saw you. The mom with the obviously tired little boy on the red bike with the blue helmet. I watched as he lost his temper and manners with you and other children. I watched as you calmly walked over to him, explained his mistakes and made him own up to them. I watched as you made him apologize to the other children and explained to him why he was apologizing to them. I saw you attempt, through much protest on his part, to get him to apologize to the parents of the other children. I watched as he threw a temper tantrum, screaming and yelling the whole time, while you were calm.
I want to let you know I saw you take deep breathes and remain calm when I myself wouldn't have been able to. I watched as you gave him warnings before you punished him by taking way privileges, followed through with those warnings and removed those privileges.
I want you to know I heard him yelling that "you are not a nice person " for taking away those privileges. I saw you apologize to the other parents for your child's behaviour, I saw you trying not to cry out of frustration. I saw you handle all of this without raising your voice, resorting to anything other than calm words and patience.
I watched as you took a deep breath, got on your bike and rode home with him crying the whole way with you looking defeated.
I want you to know you were spotted super mom. You were spotted being strong. You were spotted being loving. You were spotted being patient and calm in a tantrum tornado. I want you to know you are not defeated, you were victorious in showing him how to properly handle these situations. You were spotted teaching him how he should and shouldn't treat friends. And you are not alone.
Be proud of yourself, and have faith in what you are doing. Know that you are not alone, alot of parents fight this battle every day. You have been spotted mom. You are loved and you love him, even if he doesn't always seem like he knows it. He does.
I want you to know you did a great job mom. You have been spotted.
I spotted this post by the LaSalle Police Service about a woman in LaSalle who lost her engagement ring and thought I would send it to you guys to hopefully help this lady find her ring.
Hi there! I want to Spot Windsor Fire for helping a lady whose car broke down on Dougall Ave yesterday. They got out of the truck and pushed her into a parking lot so she wasn't stuck in the middle of the road. Windsor is full of awesome people.

I was on Cameron and university today around 5 pm, near the Alicia Mason building. I found a religious medal in the ground. Looks worn / loved and I would like to find its owner. It's looks made of nickel and is about the size of a penny. I'm not posting what it looks like more than this, because I want the right owner to claim it. If it's yours and you lost it , please send me an email with what I'd on the medal and I will return it to you. Email is majewda_83@Hotmail.com.
A mother left her baby locked in her car on a hot day! Took firemen 20 minutes to get into the car :( guess going to the gym was more important.
Stolen this morning 6:45 am at Tim Hortons, Dougall at Tecumseh.
Owner chased the thief on for for a quarter of a mile, in the direction of Victoria street southbound under the Ouellette bridge - Jackson Park area.
The bike is a Trek X-Caliber 7, 17.5" frame, 29"wheels and is the only one this colour in the city.
It is the owner's only mode of transportation.
Please keep your eyes open and respond to this post if you see it - or call Windsor Police.
Thank you!
