First Birthday

With all the media hype surrounding environment consciousness, Hannah has gone ahead and left a huge carbon footprint. Not satisfied with just one, this little girl ended up with TWO birthday parties, generating a massive amount of waste. At least guests had to car pool for her 2nd party (due to stringent security requirements) and we did try to recycle all the cardboard and wrapping paper from her presents.

Since we are still recovering from all that partying, we have decided to allow the pictures to speak for themselves:





We continue to be thankful to God for our little daughter, and all the loving family and friends surrounding and supporting us.

A year on, we still wonder how anyone can ever be adequately prepared for parenthood. We realise how we've changed - our threshold for noise, dirt and general chaos has risen considerably; our multi-tasking skills have improved immensely and our conversations with colleagues at work are inevitably about ... Hannah.


Happy First Birthday darling Hannah

Really? One year? Wow. Time flies. Happy birthday to the baby girl. Babies aside... how are you doing, Cindy?

Well, I guess the blog tells a very lopsided story - just the Hannah bits.

It's been a crazy time really. Lots of life-changing events and decisions over the last couple of years. more to come as well.

So, while I'm getting tired and fatigued, Hannah seems to have an endless store of energy. She's already broken her cot. I reckon she'll eventually tear the apartment apart.

Hey, where are you now? Are you back? Should email me when you get a chance. If you are in this part of the world, remember to include a visit in your itinerary!
