Riaan en Kari Doorduin: Vincent verjaar

24 Julie 2012

Vincent verjaar

En so het die tyd aangestap en ons klein babaseuntjie is al een jaar oud. Die eerste partytjie moes uitgestel word - een van daai siektes wat met koors en algemene slegvoel begin, en dan wag mens vir wat daarna gaan manifesteer, en dan gaan dit gelukkig net weg na 'n paar dae. So was hy darm gesond die naweek na sy verjaardag, alhoewel die helfte van die maatjies toe ongelukkig nie meer kon kom nie. Ons is darm nie heeltemal in vir groot kinderpartytjies vir eerste verjaardae nie, en was heel gelukkig met die groepie van drie maatjies en Vincent. Hulle het lekker gespeel en die groot "maatjies" het lekker gekuier.

Verjaardagseuntjie!

Nijntje lezen saam met Opa en Oma

'n Nuwe Nijntje boek! Handig as Oupa en Ouma in Holland 'n draai gaan maak!

So ry mens 'n verjaardagkruiwa.

En so maak mens met 'n Ikea-verjaardagtonnel!

Die blokkekar moet eers aanmekaar gesit word.....

En dan kan hy rondgestoot word.

Maar die heel coolste is die Y-bike! Vir 'n seuntjie wat nog nie kan loop nie, maak dit 'n nuwe wereld oop!!

Julle se mens kan hierdie eet???

Kruiwaens aanmekaarsit is cool..

Nefie, kleinneef en kleinnig by die familie-partytjie.

Eers kaartjies lees!

Die "tafel" vir die maatjie-partytjie Saterdag

Maatjies: Lucca, Stefan en Adele

Die koek (wat onaangeraak bly staan het en later vir die huishulp gegee is)

Blokkarre is ook cool vir nefies in rondstoot!

Fun was had by all!

"Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind." -Albert Einstein

"He who cannot draw on 3000 years is living from hand to mouth." -Goethe

"When confronted with a work of art, we have to open our minds to allow it to carry us away. If we seek to relate intimately to another person, we have to be prepared to make ourselves vulnerable.." - Karen Armstrong

I wanted to live everywhere and smell, taste, feel everything. I wanted to go to sea, explore unknown lands, take off in a space rocket, dine only at all-you-can-eat restaurants, be the last to leave parties. What I couldn’t acknowledge then, and hardly now, is that life just isn’t like that for most of us. The quicksands of suburbia were lurking at every step, and those who broke on through to the sunlit uplands couldn’t find their way back, even when the poverty and lack of enthusiasm for climbing means they wanted to come back. It was the dream of an immature young man, which is exactly what I was.
My eyes would be drawn inevitably to the low ridge of purple hills that ringed the east side of Manchester. The weight of the city; of all those people moving on their tiny arcs across its concrete streets, would be lifted for a moment. That place, over there in those hills, was somewhere I could feel alive, where the moment of release could give me the clarity to understand unconsciously that poetry, prophecy, and religion are all one.

- Ed Douglas: Voices from the Summit, 2000
