Maria, ek dink jy was 'n ontsettende sterk vrou! My hart sou flenters gewees het....

Onse Vader...
Onse Vader
Ek kannie bid ONSE as ek net vir myself leef nie .
Ek kannie bid VADER as ek nie sy kind geword het nie.
Ek kannie bid WAT IN DIE HEMEL IS as ek nog aardgebonde is nie .
Ek kannie bid LAAT U NAAM GEHEILIG WORD as ek dit ydelik gebruik nie.
Ek kannie bid LAAT U KONINKRYK KOM as ek nie sy Woord uitdra nie.
Ek kannie bid LAAT U WIL GESKIED as ek altyd my eie sin wil hê nie.
Ek kannie bid om my DAAGLIKSE BROOD as ek spandabelrig lewe nie.
Ek kannie bid VERGEEF ONS ONS SKULDE as ek nie berou het nie.
Ek kannie bid SOOS ONS ONS SKULDENAARS VERGEWE en met 'n wrok rondloop nie.
Ek kannie bid AAN U BEHOORT DIE KONINKRYK as ek Jesus nie dien nie
Ek kannie bid EN DIE KRAG as daar nog vrees in my hart is nie.
Ek kannie bid EN DIE HEERLIKHEID as ek my lewe regeer nie .
Ek kannie bid TOT IN EWIGHEID as ek nie sy koms verwag nie.
Ek kannie sê AMEN as ek nie kinderlik glo nie.

Before I were a mom...
Before I were a Mom
I made and ate hot meals.
I had unstained clothing.
I had quiet conversations on the phone.
Before I were a Mom,
I slept as late as I wanted
And never worried about how late I got into bed.
I brushed my hair and my teeth everyday.
I made and ate hot meals.
I had unstained clothing.
I had quiet conversations on the phone.
Before I were a Mom,
I slept as late as I wanted
And never worried about how late I got into bed.
I brushed my hair and my teeth everyday.
Before I were a Mom
I cleaned my house each day.
I never tripped over toys or forgot words of lullabies.
Before I were a Mom
I didn't worry whether or not my plants were poisonous.
I never thought about immunizations
Before I were a Mom
I had never been puked on
Pooped on
Spit on
Chewed on
Peed on
Or pinched by tiny fingers
Before I were a Mom I had complete control of:
My thoughts
My body
And my mind.
I slept all night
I had never been puked on
Pooped on
Spit on
Chewed on
Peed on
Or pinched by tiny fingers
Before I were a Mom I had complete control of:
My thoughts
My body
And my mind.
I slept all night
Before I were a Mom
I never held down a screaming child so that doctors
could do tests or give shots.
I never looked into teary eyes and cried.
I never got gloriously happy over a simple grin.
I never sat up late hours at night watching a baby sleep.
I never held down a screaming child so that doctors
could do tests or give shots.
I never looked into teary eyes and cried.
I never got gloriously happy over a simple grin.
I never sat up late hours at night watching a baby sleep.
Before I were a Mom
I never held a sleeping baby just because I didn't want
to put it down.
I never felt my heart break into a million pieces
when I couldn't stop the hurt.
I never knew that something so small could affect
my life so much.
I never knew that I could love someone so much.
I never knew I would love being a Mom.
I never held a sleeping baby just because I didn't want
to put it down.
I never felt my heart break into a million pieces
when I couldn't stop the hurt.
I never knew that something so small could affect
my life so much.
I never knew that I could love someone so much.
I never knew I would love being a Mom.
Before I were a Mom
I didn't know the feeling of having my heart outside my body.
I didn't know how special it could feel to feed a hungry baby.
I didn't know that bond between a Mother and her child.
I didn't know that something so small
Could make me feel so important.
I didn't know the feeling of having my heart outside my body.
I didn't know how special it could feel to feed a hungry baby.
I didn't know that bond between a Mother and her child.
I didn't know that something so small
Could make me feel so important.
Before I were a Mom
I had never gotten up in the middle of the night
Every 10 minutes to make sure all was okay
I had never known the warmth
The joy
The love
The heartache
The wonder
Or the satisfaction of being a Mom.
I didn't know I was capable of feeling so much before I were a Mom.
I had never gotten up in the middle of the night
Every 10 minutes to make sure all was okay
I had never known the warmth
The joy
The love
The heartache
The wonder
Or the satisfaction of being a Mom.
I didn't know I was capable of feeling so much before I were a Mom.

Hallo pragtig!!!
Baie welkom in ons wêreld meisiekind!
Klein Mia is gister die 9de Oktober om 14h44 in Pretoria gebore. Sy is 46cm lank en weeg 'n hele 2.84kg!
Mandie en Jansie - baie geluk vir julle, mag sy vir julle nog baie vreugde bring!
Love Incarnated
Hold your breath
And take a peek
You’ve never seen
A girl this sweet
Long eyelashes
Perfect lips
Feel how strong
Her fingers grip!
Eyes squeezed tight
A baby sigh
Mommy whispers
A lullaby
Daddy tweaks
A tiny curl
In silent pride
His little girl
Not a whimper
Good as gold
In loving arms
That ached to hold
Months of waiting
Now she’s here
They share a smile
And then a prayer
Thank you Father
Up above
For this new gift
Of living love
~ Kristen Singh ~
Mia-lief, jou mamma kon nog nooit hardloop, spring, netbal speel, dans, aan atletiek deelneem of hopscotch speel nie, maar op een of ander manier, ek dink dis 'n kombinasie van genade en suiwer wilskrag het sy jou 'n volle 38 weke gedra! Jy is geseënd met 'n engel van 'n mamma, wees goed vir haar. En Jansie, wees lief vir haar. Sy is kosbaar.
Mandie - ek salueer jou!!! Jy het reggekry wat almal insluitende die wetenskap gesê het onmoontlik is. Ek buig laag!!!!

Normaal
Wanneer is iemand normaal? In ons samelewing word iemand met 'n gebrek gewoonlik geklassifiseer as abnormaal, maar tog wonder ek of dit nie dalk daardie mense is wat die normaalste van ons almal is nie. Ek kyk na die wêreld om my en ek sien bitter baie lyding. Daar is mense met fisiese gestremdhede wat dit moeilik vind om net te praat of te hoor of selfs om so 'n simpel ding te doen soos om toilet toe te gaan. Dan is daar mense wat so afgetakel word deur 'n siekte of siektes en ook nie al die 'normale' dinge kan doen nie.
Daar is mense wat se psige versteurd geraak het. Mense met 'sindrome' en dies meer wat nog nooit en ook nooit sal 'n 'normale' lewe leef nie. Grootmense wat vasgevang sit in 'n kinderverstand. 'n Nabye familielid het Outisme. 'n Pragtige meisiekind van sestien wat die verstand van 'n 4 of 5 jarige het. 'n Ouer wat die res van haar lewe haar baba moet versorg. En haar dan nog moet bekommer oor wat van haar baba gaan word as sy die dag nie meer daar is nie. 'n Ouer wat self aan spierdistrofie ly en party dae nie eers haar arms kan oplig nie, wat nog te sê haar 16 jarige kan help aantrek, hare kam, tande borsel, en gereed kry vir skool.
Waarby ek eintlik wil uitkom en wat vir my bitter opvallend is, is die feit dat dit juis hierdie mense 'n wat 'n lewensvreugde, 'n dankbaarheid uitstraal wat my, my kop in skaamte wil laat sak. Ek sê nie almal nie, ek sê die meerderheid. Dis asof God hulle met die gawe van blymoedigheid in die hoogste graad geseën het. Ja, hulle beleef ook hulle donker tye, maar dit is asof daar altyd 'n vlammetjie in hul lewens brand.
Uit hierdie mense se lewens het ek al die mooiste musiek, die pragtigste gedigte, die lieflikste skilderye gesien. God het nie vir hulle halwe gawes gegee nie, hy het hulle volluit geseën!!
Hierdie is van my skilderye wat ek by so 'n baie spesiale persoon gekoop het. Ek maak 'n punt daarvan om as ek iets nuut wil hê en ek het 'n los geldjie, altyd by haar te koop. Sy het so 8 jaar gelede 'n verlammende beroerte gehad, maar het iets van haar lewe gemaak. Thanx Nicky...
(Ek kannie eers ordentlike foto's geneem kry nie.... )
Hier het ek nog 'n dame raakgelees wat die allermooiste gedigte skryf. Sy het 'n skryftalent sonder weerga, haar eerlikheid bring trane in my oë en ek gaan soek daagliks daar om te kyk of sy nie dalkies nog ietsie bygeskryf het nie. Syself ly aan Spierdistrofie.
Hier is so ietsie van haar blog af: (Zonika, vergewe my asseblief die plagiaat...)
Ek het die lewe tegemoet geloop
met agtienjarige alwetendheid
ʼn sak vol drome
en woelende ongeduld
Ek het die lewe uitgedaag
met jeugdige onbesonnenheid
al sy ure kaal gestroop
en hom móég geleef
En nou in my grysheid
by kalme waters en sielerus
is dit my herinneringe
wat brandhout teen die winter is
Hiermee bring ek dan hulde aan al daardie spesiale mense wat te goed doen en is om 'normaal' te wees. Ek buig laag, kap my hakke teen mekaar en saluut julle! Mag God in sy Almag en Genade julle moeilike paaie met die geur van roosblare verfris...
