A Usual Saturday...

Today has been a great day. A beautiful day.
A day where in the quiet of the evening, as Nath and I prepare a lovely dinner, drink a glass of red wine and listen to some 'big band' music.... I sit in a moment of contemplation and I think "I am living the life I always imagined I would"!! "I have the daughter I always dreamed of" and "I am with the man I always imagined I would be with"... a man who is SO GREAT and can NOT sing... but does... to me - always.

Some days... I didnt really dare believe this could be my life. But this is the life I wanted. This is the life I have. And I thank God for blessing me. I thank God for making me the woman I am...

Ohhhhh - I know some of my postings are in the very least a bit boring to others... maybe a bit repetitive... but geez... I am SO grateful. And I will scream it from the top of our most beautiful mountains for the rest of my life. I love and am so grateful for every single shitty experience I have ever had. A believer in fate. In Destiny. From a very young age.

Edit: I have added the words to one of my favourite songs by Clare Bowditch, suits this post nicely.

On This Side
We are living in a treehouse
In the middle of the 'burbs.
We've got two kids now - he says he wants a third.
Well I would give this man most anything he asks
'Cause I never did imagine
How green grows the grass.

On this side, things they work differently.
Me oh my, we are all that we hoped we'd be
'Cause this time, we dared to believe.

Well it wasn't always this way,
I can tell you that for sure.
Once the only colour I knew was grey.
My heart was low, it was poor.
Felt that nobody could love me
The way that I loved them.
that was before him.

On this side, things they work differently.
Me oh my, we are all that we hoped we'd be
'Cause this time, we dared to believe.

Why do we forget how to be loved?
Why do we bother doing it was simply getting off?
I'm not talking making babies,
Thought that is also true
It's whatever you call that thing
I'm in when I'm in with you

On this side, things they work differently.
Me oh my, we are all that we hoped we'd be
'Cause this time, we dared to believe.

It's a quiet night at home now.
Little miracles in bed
And a birdy on my window sill.
That makes happy happen in my head.
It's funny all the little things,
So boring to describe,
They taught my joy her roots,
And they brought my life alive.

On this side, things they work differently.
Me oh my, we are all that we hoped we'd be
'Cause this time, we dared to believe.

Love, Love, Love that song.... play it all the time, really loud and Mikaela and I bop along. And Mikaela says "Play it again Ma"
Love and Peace.
