South Africa has done us proud!

We have silenced the sceptics... We showed the world and ourselves that we are capable!

After Bafana Bafana were elimininated I thought that the South AFricans would lose interest or try to "punish" their team as some coutries were opting for.
But as usual our country pulled together and made the most of the spectacular event!! We proved that in spite of our team's elimination we have great sportsmanship! Above all that is the name of the game.

I know as I sit here this morning the Dutch are devastated... the Spanish are jubiliant...

But we South Africans are the nation that won! We might not be holding the golden cup above our heads.... But we are holding our heads high with the great achievement we have acomplished.

I am South African. I AM 2010!!

The first step is always the hardest

Starting something new is always a little daunting... especially if it's something that other people will see & read ... Or heaven forbid be allowed to comment on.

I feel that this is a way for me to keep track of my life, thoughts & feelings. More importantly to keep a record of what is happening in Mark & Luke's lives.

The last four years have sped by so fast that I now realise that I haven't kept track of all the wonderful things that have happened.

Luke's first real word was 'ish' (fish) I remember that.... but when exactly did he say it? What was the exact moment that Mark really smiled for the first time?

I hope this will be easier to keep track of & less painful to write than putting it on paper.

Also this way all who need to or want to can see what we're doing:)

A plus all round!
