11.7.06

today 8 years ago these 3 little boys became a possibility.

i imagine they watched with eagerness and excitement

(jevan thinks they would have been fist pumping,)

as their dad finally plucked up the courage to ask their mum

if she would embark on a journey with him;

that journey has turned out to be one that will last into the eternities.

the last 8 years have bought us so much happiness.

we have made memories that will last a lifetime already.

although we have struggled through rough patches i can see the lord's hand in moulding us to be the couple that we are destined to become.

we are completely different people than we were in 2006

but i am still crazy about him.

he is my better half, my partner in crime, my right hand.

i can't imagine life without him in it.

i love that noone will ever know me quite the way he does.

he is my rock.

i'm glad that i said yes to that handsome green eyed boy who so nervously asked me,

if i wanted to go out with him 8 years ago today.

Disney On Ice

yesterday I took the boys to their first Disney on ice experience.

I don't know who was more excited about it them or me.

I can still remember my first Disney on ice and I'm pretty sure I still have the program of it.

So you can imagine my excitement to take my boys to see their first one.

They absolutely loved it.

Brax could not take his eyes off Buzz Lightyear.

He was so amazed that Buzz, Woody and Jessie were standing right there in front of him. 

Makai was singing all the songs that he could recognise and even had a little boogie. 

He applauded all the stunts that the characters did, even thought I'm sure he had no idea what he was applauding.

And I totally succumbed to buying them a piece of memorabilia that was ridiculously over priced.

The things we do to see those priceless smiles light up our children's faces.

I love being able to share these special memories with my boys and will treasure them for the lifetime to come. 

I have just realised that my two older boys are not babies anymore, I can't believe how big they are and how much they have grown.

I look forward to spending and making many more memories like this with them.
