Sad!

I hate this.

I was totally rooting for her, but alas, more sadness.

Gotta go. I'll try to write more often, but jeez, there's just nothing going on.

6 Years Ago ....

When I married you I married someone who means the world to me. As time has passed by, I have come to know the deepest warmth & the sweetest smiles anyone has ever known. And I want you to know that there's no place in the universe I'd rather be ... than cuddled up with you in the comfort of our home. Strawberry.

Find Your Smile

Find Your Smile because........

you have found the strength to let go of some of the negative...

you have learned who your true friends are in a time of personal crisis, they are few...

you are learning a lot about life...

you have conquered another day, and yet another....

you have had your faith tested and confirmed that it is still strong...

you have lowered your expectations of people and yourself...

you have allowed bliss, laughter and hope to enter your heart...

you have the ability to create your own happiness even during the darkness...

you have a stunning smile, why not share it, eh?...

your eyes sparkle when you smile. they do....

you held your head at just the right angle so your double chin is less noticeable...

you bring light to others even when you are in darkness...

you know you have the courage to spill open ...

you know you have a plethora of true blessings to be thankful for...

you know it just feels better to smile...

you have a husband that rides the waves with you, loving you all along...

you have so much to offer, time to start believing it and living it.

Human Right's Day / Birthday

Today the 21st of March is Human Rights Day in South Africa.
It's also my birthday.
Keith totally surprised me with a surprise birthday at Cubana Green Point. I mean he who can't even keep a secret for 5 minutes, kept this one from me for 2 weeks. I'm so grateful to share my life with a wonderful man who still wants to surprise me, thanks Babes.

There are 3 great moments that I can recall sharing with him, the 1st our engagement in Scotland, Edinburgh Castle, we travelled thousands of miles in the air he with the engagement ring and I was none the wiser ..., the 2nd when he converted my Mom & Dad's wedding 8mm film into a DVD for me to watch (my darling Mom had passed away and he never got the opportunity to meet her, which makes this one even more of a surprise as he did it all for me) and the 3rd was my surprise party, Love you Babes.

Live it Up

I have my favourite blogs that I read daily, as I'm still new to this myself I need to find out how one goes about adding people's blogs to my site, help!
But today I read my two favourites and both of them had wonderful news ... quite co-incidentally they both found out that they are pregnant.
Now I'm not sure what the correct protocol is when it comes to blogging but one of my favourites is http://tertia.typepad.com/so_close/ and the other one is http://www.chiaravalle.co.za/diary_nadine/index.html both are stunning souls and have walked the path. I wish them both happiness and good health in their pregnancy and no doubt will follow their blog until the new babies arrive. Good luck Ladies!

Love like a mother

Now I know, there is no love like a mother's love for her child - Celine Dion

To the man that still gives me butterflies after all these years.... I love you. Thank you for loving me.

"I Don't Wanna Miss a Thing" by Aerosmith

I could stay awake just to hear you breathing
Watch you smile while you are sleeping
Far away and dreaming
I could spend my life in this sweet surrender
I could stay lost in this moment forever
Well, every moment spent with you
Is a moment I treasure
I don't wanna close my eyes
I don't wanna fall asleep'Cause I'd miss you, babe
And I don't wanna miss a thing'
Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream will never doI'd still miss you, babe
And I don't wanna miss a thing
Lying close to you
Feeling your heart beating
And I'm wondering what you're dreaming
Wondering if it's me you're seeing
Then I kiss your eyes and thank God we're together
And I just wanna stay with you
In this moment forever, forever and ever
I don't wanna close my eyes
I don't wanna fall asleep'
Cause I'd miss you, babe
And I don't wanna miss a thing'
Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream will never doI'd still miss you, babe
And I don't wanna miss a thing
I don't wanna miss one smile
I don't wanna miss one kiss
Well, I just wanna be with you
Right here with you, just like thisI just wanna hold you close
Feel your heart so close to mine
And stay here in this moment
For all the rest of time
Don't wanna close my eyes
Don't wanna fall asleep'
Cause I'd miss you, babe
And I don't wanna miss a thing'
Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream will never do'
Cause I'd still miss you, babe
And I don't wanna miss a thingI don't wanna close my eyes
I don't wanna fall asleep'
Cause I'd miss you, babe
And I don't wanna miss a thing'
Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream will never doI'd still miss you, babe

No-where else in the world I'd rather be ... than Cape Town
