"You're The One"


DEDICATION TO MY HUSBAND ON OUR 3RD WEDDING ANNIVERSARY...



"You're The One" - Howard Hewett


Cecil tell me, how did you know?
Was it the first kiss?
No, not the first kiss, it was so much more than that
and Cecil tell me, how did you know?
Was it the first touch?
No not the first touch, it was so much more than that
I wasn't really sure, so I got down on my knees
and when I talked to God, He said you were right for me...
He says...

You're the one...you're the one
God told me so, that's how I know, and baby that's enough for me
You're the one, ...you're the one
God told me so, that's how I know, that we were meant to be

Verna tell me, what changed your mind?
Was it the diamond?
No, not the diamond, this is so much deeper than that
Verna tell me, what made you change?
Was it your mother?
No, not my mother, she didn't talk me into it

Instead I talked to God, I told Him what I need
He said this one is right, he loves you and he loves Me

You're the one, you're the one
God told me so, that's how I know, that we were meant to be
You're the one, you're the one
God told me so, that is how I know, and baby that's enough for me

I didn't want take that forever love, not that kind of love
I want us to last for a million years, so I have to hear from God

You're the one, you're the one
God told me so, that is how I've come to know, and baby that's enough for me
You're the one, you're the one
God told me so, that's how I know, that we were meant to be

God said it, I believe Him (yeah)
God said it is
I trust you with my life...

Cecil you personify 1 Corinthians 13:4-8

On the 27th was my hubby's birthday I know he had a awesome day.
Cecil thank you for being such a great daddy and husband. We sooooooooo proud to be identified with you. I thought I'd dedicate one of your favorite songs to you by Josh Groban:

Like the sound of silence calling,
I hear your voice and suddenly
I'm falling, lost in a dream.
Like the echoes of our souls are meeting,
You say those words and my heart stops beating.
I wonder what it means.
What could it be that comes over me?
At times I can't move.
At times I can hardly breath.

When you say you love me
The world goes still, so still inside and
When you say you love me
For a moment, there's no one else alive

You're the one I've always thought of.
I don't know how, but I feel sheltered in your love.
You're where I belong.
And when you're with me if I close my eyes,
There are times I swear I feel like I can fly
For a moment in time.
Somewhere between the Heavens and Earth ,
And frozen in time, Oh when you say those words.

When you say you love me
The world goes still, so still inside and
When you say you love me
For a moment, there's no one else alive

[bridge:]
And this journey that we're on.
How far we've come and I celebrate every moment.
And when you say you love me,
That's all you have to say.
I'll always feel this way.

When you say you love me
The world goes still, so still inside and
When you say you love me
In that moment,I know why I'm alive

When you say you love me.
When you say you love me.
Do you know how I love you?

30 YEARS IS A LONG TIME...


glitter-graphics.com



Its mom and dad's 30th wedding anniversary.
In this day and age 30 years is almost unheard of I'm soooooooo proud of them. All I can say is that after 30 years they've set the goal posts extremely high. We'll be married 3 years in a few days time and it makes 30 years seem a life time away. Its not everyday that you find people married for sooooo long who still loves, respects, supports and encourages each other. We wish them many more years to come...

With Asenath being with them all week Gran and Gramps gets to see from the smile she wakes up with each and every morning till the fight she puts up every night before falling off to sleep. That means she does everything with them from going on shopping trips to working with Grandpa, who puts her on the table in his office while his working. I recon Simba Chipy watched him working for the first 3 months and now she seems to think she knows exactly how a Laptop works.

Thank you for always being there for us. The list would be endless if I had to thank you for everything you've done for us. I can't think of a single time that you were not there for me or any one else I know be it family or a stranger. Just to mention one of many Not too long ago I locked my car's key in my car while being at work and you never hesitated to go cut a new house key for my place in order to get my spare key so I can drive home. You've always taken your stand for what is right no matter how unpopular it will make you. Thank you for leading by example, because you don't only talk the talk, but you walk the talk as well.
A quote from my mom I will never forget:
God does not hold you responsible for another man's actions, he holds you responsible for the things you do.


Daddy for your birthday on the 31st

A quote from Daddy I will never forget:
I cried for shoes until I saw a man with no feet.

Sometimes not making a decision is a decision...

While Asenath and daddy is taking their Sunday nap, I'm laying and thinking about today's service. And something just struck me...

For a long time now my hubby and I have been discussing a big decision we need to make in our lives, but because its such a hard decision to make we've kinda swept it under the carpet and pretended that there is no change to make. Well today I realized that this decision needs to be made urgently, because not making a decision is a decision, sometimes by saying nothing you are condoning the next persons actions you really saying - I'm okay with what others are doing or saying regardless of how you feel...

I know the right decision will not be one everyone I know will like, but I'd rather be right in God's eyes before I seek favour in the sight of man. Someone I know likes to say: Let the dogs bark God's caravan is moving on.

Back in the land of the living...



Yes I'm back finally. Between Asenath and work I been neglecting my blog, but I'm back and hope to post more often.

Life in the Damons house will never be the same again... Because I'm back at work Ashy stays with gran and gramps during the week and comes home weekend. So my weeks have become much longer. I miss her all day - everyday and when Friday comes along its like it just takes to long to become 17:00. We must have done something right cause she's the sweetest little Simba Chipy ever. We thought the sleepless nights were going to last forever, but to our surprise when she was about 2 months old she started sleeping right through from about 20:30 till 05:00 in the morning (our little alarm clock) However now she refuses to take long naps during the day. She's growing sooooo fast I can't believe just a few weeks ago I came home with our little mustard seed (Mathew 17:20 - If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; AND NOTHING SHALL BE IMPOSSIBLE UNTO YOU).

When we with her she gets to hear a bedtime story the way only daddy can tell one about the 3 little piggies and (wolf - the way you say it in Afrikaans) She loves it when mommy eats her fingers and actually passes the one hand after the other to me. I don't know who told her that you use the word Ja when you want attention and neeeeeeee when you don't like something. Mommy tries to speak proper English to her - while daddy speaks regte Afrikaans. Who knows mommy just might become a stay at him mom in the not soooo distant future and look after Simba Chipy.
