Joshua Learning to Talk ??

This is a short clip of Joshua in the office being filmed by Tony (on his fancy Cellphone).. Apologies that you have to view it with your head tilted at 90 degrees... Perhaps you could tilt your computer.. Now you can tell why we are having so much fun with this wonderful little boy...

Scary Stuff

You may or may not believe it, but amongst this ghastly gang of Ghouls is my beautiful eldest daughter Larnelle.. Front row on the right is my precious little angel..

Larnelle and I were talking the other day and she complained about some of her 'friends' at school and how fickle they can be.. This was one of those teachable moments - The lesson "You have a choice.. Soar like an eagle or peck in the dirt like a chicken"...

So this is Larnelle - pecking in the dirt like a chicken.. BUT all is not Lost she also gets to soar like an eagle..


Now this is more like it.. Larnelle the eagle.. She and her team won the softball tournament and the winners all received their 'gold' medals..

Of course it's really not about a fancy dress fundraising day at the school ( The tunnel of horrors) or winning first place in a softball tournament.. It's about character and integrity and Larnelle as a prefect is learning that who she is, is of greater significance than what she does.. Because who she is determines what she does and not the other way around.

The following weekend after this tournament we travelled to nearby Karibib to see the Okahandja Primary Team play in another tournament.. Sadly the team did not do well at all on the field and this presented them with the opportunity to soar... Not all did.

After the Karibib tournament we visited with some very special friends who treated us to some wonderful fellowship and the opportunity to relax before travelling back to Okahandja..

Here we see the girls enjoying some fun time on a trampoline.. This was at our friends home in Karibib..
