Lessons I Learn From Samara

I learn alot from Samara. Many times I have admired her courage and her way of looking at life. Quite innocent and speaks what is in her heart. At the beginning of the new term, after picking her from school, Samara blurted out that they have a new boy in class and he is called Jaden. So she went ahead to say that now she knew 2 Jadens..her brother in heaven and the new boy in class. I told her that is true and we got home. I quickly wrote a text message to her class teacher explaining to her that she may hear Samara talk about her brother Jaden now that she has a classmate with same name. For sure, she did tell the teacher that she has a brother called Jaden and he fell sick and went to heaven and that she loved him so so much. I initially worried about how she will cope in class with the new boy and it has been over a month since the new term began and believe me she has never mentioned the boy again.

And He Walked

Praise the Lord. Nate has taken his full confident steps back and forth this evening. 11th June 2015. What a gift, what a milestone. Its really really warmed our hearts. He has walked very very fast to daddy, to Samara and to me. I have just put him to bed and he gave me that cute smile and am one blessed mum. It is such a gift from God..milestones.

1 Year

Oh I have been trying to log onto the blog but everytime I do ,I am not lucky enough. We are 1 Year now and we are super excited. Nate turned 1 on 26th May and it looked too short, it seemed like he'd been born just the other day and now 1year? We are grateful for Jabulani, he is such a joy to us. He is musical, he even poses to dance, claps his hands, waves them up in the air when he feels he wants to express himself more. They are lovely friends with big sister Samara and what a joy. So we celebrated his birthday just the 4 of us, in our own small way. Samara was disappointed that there was no cake but we had a great time together. A few pictures below, share in our joy.
