Happy Birthday Mommy - your days are still important



#1 – 2 – 3 Great Weekends

As we approached the Town house I saw my mom walking towards the car she looked demure and pretty, and her graceful picture of black and white skinny pants and shirt let her stand out.  Her graceful appearance and the smile upon her face was absolutely glowing.

As I got out of the car and hugged her, kissed her and wished her a happy birthday.  She looked so happy to see me and my husband.  We all walked back toward the gated and greeted my stepdad whom himself looked so dashing.  

God surely looked down upon us and it was clear we were where we were supposed to be this weekend.  She served us something to drink while we sat in front of the fire waiting for my sister to arrive we chatted.

Before long my sister arrived and we all enjoyed catching up and just having a wonderful time, the men braaied the meat and we all visited and enjoyed the beautiful day.



The day turned out excellent, everybody had such a lovely time.  We finally enjoyed our lunch and after cake we all took too the road.  Time was running out and we needed to go home.  Back to our normal routine filed days.

God has smiled upon my mom and I believe she will enjoy many, many more to come.  She is a blessing and a wonderful person.  Our lives will be empty without her in them.

The great weekends are still lying ahead of us and we are all looking forward to living excited lives.

2nd Wedding Anniversary!

Hey, hey it is my 2 nd anniversary!   This has been an interesting time in my life and I must be honest I am starting to see the changes in my own life.    Firstly remember I am a city girl with this bad ass attitude, my way or the highway.   Ah, now let me tell you that doesn’t work like this.   My husband has a firm hand over me and keeps me in toe.   I am still my own person and have many new interests.    How was my day today?   Well the normal, got out of bed at 04h30 and then left the house by 06h00 arriving at work at 07h00.   Then to top it off in an early morning meeting at 07h30 to 08h30, then back in the office.   I worked on three projects; getting information from people isn’t that easy.   I firstly completed my own scope of work, followed up with the suppliers and then going back to the next person.   As I work according to my time keeping schedule I then finally got to lunch time.   I...

Wisdom in Trusting God

Proverbs 3: 5-6 NIV “Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight.” My journey has been really interesting and there are days when I find it really difficult to trust in God.  On those days I go and make all kinds of plans and I think and worry about the matter at hand and at the end of that day I am tired, frustrated and I feel sick to my stomach.  Are you able to relate?   It sounds so easy when you read these words “Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding;”  Many times I take my problems to the LORD and I leave them with the LORD and after some serious thinking and worrying I go back to the LORD and take the problems back. This has been something I did for a number of years and lately, I have realized it has to change, I have to trust in the LORD.  After all, God is the creator and knows the plans for...
