Happy Mother’s Day

Wishing you all an awesome Mother’s Day!

Happy Easter

Mom’s Day Off

I just couldn’t get my boys into the classroom today. According to them mom’s not allowed to work on her birthday. Since teaching’s now my job I was to have the day off. This of course, meant that they cannot do school, because they must have a teacher for school. Now how on earth could I argue with such logic. After all, it is my birthday today… :)

According to them Daddy spread the rumour that there's no school today but suspected they might be chancing... so I got them baking cake for HomeEd...

Who said learning Maths couldn’t be fun? I got Misha to measure the ingredients for my birthday cake. He insisted on decorating the cake too & of course he had lots of practice counting out the 41 candles he insisted had to be on there.

My master decorator, hard at work finishing off mom's birthday cake...

All done with mom's birthday cake...

oh my, so many candles

Of course, my little sis stopped by later to come help us grade the finished products and also help Jesse make another batch of fudge because his last batch turned out to be toffee-fudge. This time it was a success & might I add, it tastes yummy… 3rd time lucky, they say. ;)

Here’s to 2011…

Oh dear I forgot to post these…

May you always make the right moves.

May your cup runneth over with love.


May you always find shelter from any storm.


May you remain good looking and looking good!


May you find the perfect diet for your soul.
(If this face doesn't make you want to stop eating sausage, nothing will.)


May you find perfect balance in the company you keep.


May you have as much fun as you can before someone makes you stop.


May the worst thing that happens to you come in slobberry pink and furry tan.


May you manage to MAKE time for siesta.


May all the new folks you meet be interesting and kind.


May your accessories always harmonize with your natural beauty!


Should your mouth ever be bigger than your stomach, may you have a chewing good time!


May you always know when to walk away and know when to run.


And may your friends always bring you joy!

Happy New Year!!!

We’re leaving tomorrow morning for Vanderbijlpark to spend New Year with my sister & won’t be back until Saturday afternoon, so I’m posting my New Years wishes early.

Our Wish For You:

 
Comfort on difficult days,
Smiles when sadness intrudes,
Rainbows to follow the clouds,
...Laughter to kiss your lips,
Sunsets to warm your heart,
Gentle hugs when spirits sag,
Friendships to brighten you being'
Beauty for your eyes to see,
Confidence for when you doubt,
Faith so that you can believe,
Courage to know yourself,
Patience to accept the truth,
And love to complete your life.

 

Wishing you all God’s very richest blessings for an awesome 2011.

Merry Christmas

An urgent note from SPCA.

I’ve just received this urgent warning via email. Please pass it on to all pet owners you know.

Please share this with all the pet owners you know and ask them to do the same.

This information will only take a few minutes to share might prevent the senseless death of other pets.

Please tell  every dog or cat owner you know. Even if you don't have a pet, please pass this to those who do. Cocoa Mulch, sold by garden supply stores contains a lethal ingredient called 'Theobromine'.

It  is lethal to dogs and cats. It smells like chocolate and it really attracts dogs. They will ingest this stuff and die. Although the mulch has NO warnings printed on the label, upon further investigation on the company's web  site, this product is HIGHLY toxic to dogs and cats.
