Turning one is fun!

One year ago (give or take a couple of days from this post) Leigh de Preez brought into the world this special little girl. Michaela is gorgeous, and she is one. Happy Birthday little girl!

Blue Wedding shoes

So the color theme from my weddings is blue, grey and white. I've decided on wearing blue shoes, and found some inspirational photos of brides with a similar idea.

How awesome!

I love!

Idyllic

In the words of Stevie Wonder:

Isn't she lovely

Isn't she wonderful

Isn't she precious...

(Chinese umbrellas are a prop that will most certainly feature at my wedding- I so totally want a double-decker like this)

So it is to be Kat Forsyth.

I have been deliberating over photographers for some time now; and have done what I believe to be extensive research. I have finally decided that Kat Forsyth is my girl. She is wonderful. She is new, constantly learning, appreciates other photographers, is extremely real and fresh and someone I definitely want there on the day.

Have a look at her lovely blog, and below, find some of the beauties she has snapped:

Isn't she lovely?

Work is work. I get it.

So I went through a period, you know it, when the Power Ball Lotto was up to the 70/ 80/ 90 millions, where I was already fantasizing about quitting my job and moving to coast to live and read on a beach in front of a fabulous house with a yacht.

I have however moved on from this fantasy (I was literally going through mini periods of depression the next morning when I realized I was not a millionaire) and have moved on.

I have decided everything I achieve in life will be due to my hard, ethical work. I have also realized in business, that any short-cut taken is never really a short-cut, and any under-handed business will never yield money.

But the paragraph/ essay above was not my intent for this post, it was more to vent in the fact that today was hard, difficult, almost unbearable. Until. I realized; bad days come, but they also go. Tomorrow might very well be an excellent day, and the hardships occurred in the now, will be forgotten. The most important thing in it all are the lessons learnt- which I make a conscience effort to extract from every problem.

Well, at least that's my two cents.

Out.
