Fifteen years ago today, I woke extra early.
I was primped and preened to perfection and dressed as a bride… your bride.
Five years, we had been waiting, to make this official, and finally the day was here.
It flew.
A magical day where I felt like a Princess, finally swept off her feet by her Prince Charming.
And the last fifteen years have flown equally fast.
Two beautiful children, one fur baby, our own home, and each other.
What more could I want?
Nothing more.
Just many more years, like the ones we have already spent together.
Wishing a Happy 15th Anniversary to my darling Hubby Dearest. I love you soooooo much, and feel blessed to have you by my side 💖

Dear dear Sandra! Thank you for this! The same new award twice in as many days. I feel very honoured! 😊😊😊
There are blogger I frequently interact with who always make me excited when I see their Gravatar popping up. Excited because I know there will be either a good exchange waiting for me, a link to an interesting post being shared or just a pat on the back waiting for me. Rob is one of those bloggers. Not only do I find great posts on his blog but his comments often lead to many thoughts being shared. Today he surprised me with a blog award. And it’s an award that I have not yet received.

Ok, so three things abut me…
- I am a British Indian woman, with a Kenyan background thrown in, thanks to my parents being born there.
- I wear many hats… Daughter, sister, wife, mother, friend, teacher, blogger, author… I wonder where I have the time to sleep sometimes…
- I love to sing! I find a song for all occasions! And if I can’t find one, I’ll make one up!
5 questions to answer…
- Would you jump in front of a bus for a complete stranger? I think it depends on the situation. If I was with my children, I couldn’t leave them and put myself in danger. If I was alone, I would.
- If a neighbour was a hoarder and lived in unsafe and unhealthy conditions, would you ignore it or take action? If you did, what would it be? It would depend on how well I knew the neighbour.
- If you could go back in time and change one day in your life, which day would it be and why? A bad decision I made a good few years back. I can;ty go into details, but that day comes back to haunt me regularly.
- What is your favourite word? I can’t have one favourite word, I’m a writer!!!
- The weird question: If you knew you could get away with it, would you rob a bank? It would haunt me for the rest of my life, so no!
