Interview with Caleb Mikaelo de Wet Peake*

This took place last night in bed, Christian was asleep and it was the perfect opportunity for some quality one on one time with Caleb, so I engaged him in a little interview on his favorite stuff - not that some of his answers made much sense but they definitely made me LAUGH!

Your favourite cartoon character?: Lightning Mcqueen & Iron man

Never a dull moment when my Caley's around!

I AM BLESSED*

My track of the day...

I first heard this song while watching the movie Crazy, Stupid, Love

More info here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crazy,_Stupid,_Love.

And it played right @ the end @ the soppy "we all make up & live happily ever after" & I fell in love with it! ENJOY!

MIDDLE EAST - "BLOOD"

Lyrics to Blood :

older brother, restless soul, lie down

lie for a while with your ear against the earth

and you'll hear your sister sleep talking

say "your hair is long but not long enough to reach

home to me

but your beard

someday might be"

and she'll wake up in a cold sweat on the floor

next to a family portrait drawn when you were four

and beside a jar of two cent coins that are no good no more

she'll lay it aside

older father, weary soul, you'll drive

back to the home you made on the mountainside

with that ugly, terrible thing

those papers for divorce

and a lonely ring

a lonely ring

sit on your porch

and pluck your strings

and you'll find somebody you can blame

and you'll follow the creek that runs out into the sea

and you'll find the peace of the Lord.

grandfather, gentle soul, you'll fly

over your life once more before you die

since our grandma passed away

you've waited for forever and a day

just to die

and someday soon

you will die

it was the only woman you ever loved

that got burnt by the sun too often when she was young

and the cancer spread and it ran into her body and her blood

and there's nothing you can do about it now

Things I desire, things that Inspire & things that simply make me smile*

These cat & dog slippers! What I'd give to own a pair!

Talk about the perfect breakfast - Pancakes, Bacon & Syrup! Yummy!

Reading this quote on a "lazy" day makes me smile... : )

This picture of Gabriella & I about 4 years ago before I had the boys, back when she called me "Tarry-girl", and followed me everywhere and wanted to do everything I did - when her & I were "best friends!"

This Prayer says it all:

My name written in beach sand by one of my best friend's in her recent trip to Cape Town!

Caleb in sunglasses, a wig & a beanie! LOL!

These blue heart shaped earrings! Gorgeous!

Christian with ponytails! LOL! such cuteness*

This Vintage polka dot Shirt! Just my style*

Hmmmmmmm... My mom's homemade pizza! Nothing taste's better!

These feathered chandeliers! Oh my! Awesome!

Best friends "Bok" the goat & "Bubbles" the hippo @ Emerald Casino's animal park.

These bookmarks I got for Mothers day from the boys daycare! Beautiful!

Daniella pointing out to Caleb he's dropped some of his ice-cream!

This picture entitled: FREEDOM* I want FREEDOM*

This quote! There are so many of "these people" in my life! I am blessed!

Wondering how soon i can get it & where to place it!??

A FEW OF THE BEST THINGS ABOUT TODAY...

I listened to:

Classical music - Johann Sebastian Bach – Brandenburg Concertos 1 – 3

If you are a fan of Jane Austen like me, then Bach’s Concertos will enchant you as it did me.

I can’t wait to cuddle up with my KOBO & start reading:

The Hundred-Year-Old Man Who Climbed Out of the Window and Disappeared by Jonas Jonasson

Oh how I love the unread pages of a NEW BOOK*

Short review here: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Hundred-Year-Old-Man-Climbed-Window-Disappeared/dp/1843913720

I ate a:

Nestle Peppermint Crisp Chocolate! Hmmmm… it seems my addiction for Pina Colada’s & books have now grown to include this “delicious little crunchy centred minty little taste of heaven covered in chocolate”… another one of life’s little treasures!

I AM BLESSED*
