A portrait of my babes once a week in 2016 (3 years, Sibon)

"...she remembered watching a summer sunset from this very spot. Not so long ago; just a lifetime."  Sharon Kay Penm

We are back at Sibon, our favourite place in the world. I love watching this place grow in your hearts as you sip hot rooibos tea in the chilly mornings, waiting for the world to wake up, as you think it's normal to see a herd of elephant come down to drink at the waterhole, as you jump into the Landrover as if this is more than just a holiday spot, as you experience the joy of roasting marshmallows for the first time. This place nourishes all of our souls.

Your third birthday party can be summed up in a few words - ponies, pink balloons, chocolate cake, and fairies. What a special day, celebrating with special people. Being three is magical.

You both love cooking, whether it's helping Papa make dinner in the evening or helping me make breakfast in the morning. Here you are making scrambled eggs. You crack the eggs, pour in the milk, add the spices, grate the cheese, and stir. In fact my role has been relegated to hot-stove overseer, and toast-maker.
