Last week Thursday the kids started school.  The kids slept at 8pm sharp a day before they start school.  They were looking forward to sleep because they were exhausted.  We had a movie date and had loads of playtime in the mall.  You can read about our movie date here if you want. I was hoping to do a 5ish km before I start the day but I only managed to kick the blankets at about 6am.  I was not going to be able to drop them on time should I start with 5km run, so I settled for a quicker […]

We had the most relaxing Christmas holidays.  We decided not to travel this December holidays.  It is difficult to leave more than 1300km from your parents and siblings.  Christmas is better spent with family and friends.  It was a bit lonely though but we had time to each other without the rush of work and school.  I also had a time to do and think about Christmas traditions we practised when growing up.  We also introduced new traditions for our young family.   I miss my Mother and siblings, I will see them in the early months of this year. I thought Muli school is beginning this morning.  I […]

It was cute.  I wished I could freeze the moment.  I remembered that I used to document special moments like this somewhere.  Then it hit me “conversations with myself”, […]

The best things in life aren’t planned…They simply just happen. That’s how the past weekend turned out.  We planned to go hang around with Penguins at Boulders Beach.  The plan was for us to be there at 10am and be back just past lunch time, in time for Zee’s nap time.  I wanted to go watch The Black Panther at the cinema. As it turned out, by 10am we were parked at our friends house drive through.  There was no one in the house.  Their reason was understandable though.  They woke up early to run some errand      s, on their […]
