Week 2 done.
So… Today today it’s been two weeks since the hubster left for the USA. He is doing absolutely great and adjusting so well. They’ve been working long hours, but I think it’s about time he works in the line he enjoys and loves. As a young girl I said I would never marry a farmer… … Lees meer Week 2 done.
Where do babies come from?
Tjoeks is now 6yrs old. She is very outspoken and a curious child. She loves to ask me those difficult questions… I believe we can answer any difficult questions that children may ask according to their age. We as the adults just need to be creative. So today I got the question again: “Mom, how … Lees meer Where do babies come from?

Covies day 4.
This past week has truly been a blessing in disguise for our family.

I write fiction. Ek skryf fiksie.
Ek skryf verbeeldingstories... In 2017 het ek my heel eerste boek uitgegee. Ek wou net een skryf. Net om te kan sê dat ek het. Ek glo dat elkeen van ons ten minste een boek in ons het. Een storie wat wil vertel word. Dit hoef nie 'n verbeeldingstorie te wees nie. Dit kan JOU … Lees meer I write fiction. Ek skryf fiksie.
My beurt is my beurt.
Die Goue Vroue is ‘n handjievol Suid-Afrikaanse vroue – oud en jonk – wat lief is vir skryf. Ons is geanker in die werklikheid, maar spoor mekaar met bloguitdagings aan om te fantaseer. “The Talking Stick” dien in hierdie geval as inspirasie tot wonderbaarlike stories…elke Goue Vrou kry haar beurt. Hierdie rondte pak ons in … Lees meer My beurt is my beurt.
