How to measure life

We were having dinner and I was having a blank so I asked Donné, “What did we do yesterday?” Hmmmmm….silence. “Oh yes,” I said, “we went to Makro.” Donné says, “Yes, but that was only an hour.” Some more thinking ensues. Then I say, “We also painted, and played games…” and Donné added, “And went for a bike ride in the street after supper.”

Sometimes we measure life in events, like birthday parties and holidays and a trip to the shops, but life (and love) is all the things that happen in between the so-called events, like running around the garden playing “goose, goose” with Grace and watching the neighbourhood kids pushing Eli around on his little fire truck.

That’s what this blog is all about – remembering the glue that binds our lives together.
