Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony. – Mahatma Gandhi
Yesterday we had a few people over for David’s birthday. David and Guy each made a potjie and we just spent the day chilling. Halfway through when my little house was full of people in and out, laughing, eating, drinking and being merry I was overwhelmed with happiness. Sounds cheesy I know but it was […]
