Ride ’em cowboy
Adam started practising for his debut in the cowboy stunt show….
Punk rocker
It looks like Adam naturally has punk rocker moves (at least until we went over a speed bump – whoa!)
Father’s day
The day started off with Grace making me oats for breakfast in bed, followed by cards from her and Eli, a scarf that Grace knitted and a Dad mug. From there more breakfast with yummy French toast and time with the family.
What was really special though was to share a little bit of our story with our children as we took a trip to the Stellenbosch Botanical Gardens. That’s where I asked Donné to be my girlfriend, alongside the lily feature. That is where the story which lead to me being a father began (around about 16 years ago).
We all enjoyed the time together, so it is a great memory to add to the pages of our life story.

All you need is love – ouch!
Grace’s class has been learning, “All you need is love,” and she has been bringing back lessons for Eli and Adam. Adam likes the “love, love” part and adds his own twist to it all.
Addy and the animals
Even Apple is willing to get some love from Adam these days.
Adam decided to go fishing for a while
Wishing on dandelions
A cloudy, cool, but rain free day meant we could get out for a walk to soothe Adam’s soul. He seems to need a bit of fresh air and the walk did him good.
Gracie found some dandelions to spread on the wind.
Eli and the magician
Last weekend we went to Hunter’s Paw Patrol party and one of the events was a magician, which Eli was wowed with. The magic just blew him away, everything from transporting coins to ventriloquism had him gaping in awe. I wish I could have captured the exact look of amazement that he had when helping with one of the tricks
