Something special, pretty and perfect.

I was recently touched by Sarah Jane's hand made illustrations. They are so magical and so amazing, it's everything I love, just perfect it is. I am planning to order some of these beautiful illustrations to hang on my wall. I can't seem to resist buying them. http://www.etsy.com/shop/sarahjanestudios

Moons ago I remembered my outdoor fun adventure with friends.

A while back I remember going to Box Hill half an hour away from where I lived. My friends tagged along too and we went on an amazing adventure.We explored the beautiful hills. The amazing part was standing on top of one of the hills, you literally feel as if you are upside down. No wonder the hills are called 'the upsidedown hills'. As we walked on the pathway we came across this old grave. If I remember correctly Major Peter Labelliere (1726-1800) was buried there. So I took my camera and took one shot of the grave, to remind me of this fascinating place. The shocking part was that I saw a white line dash across the grave. Spooky or what? I don't understand what it ment, but I just figured maybe his ghost was visiting us. I managed to take a photo of the white bright line, just before it momenterally disappeared.  I did my research and found out that Major Peter Labelliere was buried upsidedown with his face facing towards the beautiful view. He left instructions that on his death he was to be buried upsidedown in Box Hill, claiming that the world was topsy-turvy and he wanted to be right in the end. He got his wish. 

This is the photo. What do you believe about the white line?

I started missing my niece's even more every single day. I love being around them, taking photos of them and playing silly games with them. Now that I have to study hard, I hardly see them anymore. I can't stand the missing, it makes me want to buy a bus ticket and go all the way to visit them.

Kids can dream a little dream too.

I recently had a nice conversation with my neice Oliwia.

Oliwia: ''I have a dream''

me: ''What dream would that be''

Oliwia ''to be a dancer and a princess''

me: ''you mean like cinderella''

Oliwia ''yes only prettier and I wont be cleaning the floors''

me: O I see

She then smiled at the camera looking as if she was daydreaming about her princess fantasies.

Every child has a dream right? My dream as a child was to be a veterinarian, but than as I grew older I realized there is nothing more in this world that I would rather do then Stop Child Abuse. Simply because I can't stand the fact that children are being sent back to abusive homes even thou they are at risk being beaten to death. How sick is that? I certainly would not work with children for the money, but to make sure they are safe and protected from harm. My dream may be hard to accomplish, but I will never give up for the little precious one's who can't defend themselves and need a helping loving hand.

Thank you to my darling niece's Tiffani, Oliwia and Matilda, who always make my days brighter when I am feeling sad.

Love Jessie x

Sheye Rosemeyer from the bottom of my heart keep blogging!

JUST YOU.

YOUR HEART.

THE REAL YOU.

 

Thank you for being out there.
 For being real.
For being available.

For writing the blog posts that tell us that you wonder sometimes if you even want to keep blogging because you sense there is no use to it. Oh my dear girl -- keep blogging. To you who write through falling tears on your keyboard about a crushing experience with your precious Ava -- where you feared you'd hurt your very spirit with your words. Only to be showered with reassuring words by multiplied tons of women out there (whom you've never met) that you ARE an amazing mother, and that each one of us has felt that same sharp pain after we've mouthed words to our children, niece's, sisters and brothers that we wish we could grab back.

Keep blogging.

One day one of us will have a crushing experience that we will then feel free to open up about. You will have paved the way for others to then receive the reassurance and comfort they need. Oh dear girl.

Keep blogging.

This is the kind of civility and showing of kindness and generosity of spirit that our world needs modeled. You live by your heart and your gift of giving -- there are those who will learn from you and then adopt for themselves such lovely habits of sharing with another -- "just because".

Keep blogging.

You are an influence for grace

in this otherwise not-so-graceful world. You have the most beautiful children and you have us. You are not alone Sheye, so whenever you feel heartbroken again just remember we will  share your pain.

My adorable niece Oliwia and her yummy sweet mummy.

 

Some photo's up for sharing.

I just felt like doing a small collage of my sweet niece's. Mind you the first collage shows my adorable niece Tiffani eating salad for the first time. She did like it. Thank god for that. I cannot stand the idea of children hating unhealthy food. What's good for them seems to always be put aside, as for McDonalds they love it. The 100% beef burgers in McDonalds sort of put my mind at ease because beef is good for you.

I opened my eyes and there it was....

I looked over to the bollywood section, and there it was, my dream film. I started breathing heavenly concidering the fact that I am looking at something that I have searched 3 years for. I finally feel that I have succeded. For a moment I close my eyes thinking it's just a dream, but as I open them the film is still there staring back at me. Thoda Pyaar Thoda Magic is the title, which translates to - A little bit of love, a little bit of magic. I wasen't expeting to find this film in Poland at all. My heart sang with joy, and I held the dvd up as if I was holding a trophee. After years of trying to get this wounderful film, finally my wish has been fulfilled.



I watched the film and it is the most beautiful film I have ever seen. The film is about an angel flying down to earth to help a man fall in love with four orphans, who have been unwanted and unloved by many. And Rani Mukherjee plays the angel, she simply represents the most beautiful loving angel in the film. Not only is she an amazing actress, but you can feel her passion and heart in acting. I advise everyone to see the film, especially those who love angels and children.


                                               Happy, happy, joy, joy

It was so lovely to hear from you Sheye Rosemeyer. I wasn't expecting to get a reply so soon. But still I was thrilled. I was just reflecting on your blog and wanted to let you know how much it means to me. Your thoughtfulness always makes my days a little brighter, and problems seem a whole lot smaller. I only hope I can be half as good a friend to you. It's people like you who make a difference in this world! Thank you for everything Sheye, Your blog opened my eyes to the beauty of this world, instead of proessing the bad things that are happening in this world, I started to admire flowers and trees. My world is a better place because someone like you exists, making everyday seem so perfect and beautiful.

Much love, Jessica.

Any one who wishes to visit Sheye Rosemeyer's blog please use the link below. Her blog is one of a kind and the most beautiful blog in the world.

I recieved this from Sheye.  The contact page is so cute! I will keep it forever, and whenever I forget the link to your blog, or if my heart feels full of sadness I will always know where to find you.

From a mothers heart.

One thousand days without Ava...
All that beauty.
All those hopes.
All that laughter.
All those dreams.
All those wishes.
All her kisses.
gone.

We still don't understand why.

Sheye Rosemeyer has to stay strong for her family.
Recently, I was in tears thinking of Ava and wishing she was alive and well. Nothing can turn the clock back, no text can mend Sheye's torn heart of loosing Ava. Maybe it's because she misses Ava so much. It always makes me feel sad, and so depressed to hear about a child, that has died for any reason. I always feel pain in my heart, because I wounder what a beautiful life the child could of had.
Thank you my beautiful people for supporting Sheye every step of the way.

I thank Sheye Rosemeyr for allowing me to use her photo of Ava in this blog. Thank you, thank you and thank you. I can't thank you enough. x


Ava Beth Rosemeyer, my favourite picture of her.

A short while later I walked around the park, without any intention of going anywhere, and I was astounded to see the sky had turned pink. I stood outside staring at the beautiful pink sky. It was a magical moment.

I call this my sky, because I was present at the moment the sky was turning pink. It may look purple to you, but trust me the sky was pink, it's actually my camera that made the sky look purple, so blame the camera for not showing the true colour that I saw.

Simple things that made me happy...
A shopkeeper sweeping the sidewalk in front of her store.
A young girl holding the door for an elderly gentleman.
A mother telling her son to say “thank you” when the waitress gave him a piece of candy.
A squirrel deftly de-shelling and devouring a peanut.A handwritten letter by me.The sun.

A reason to smile.

Henna is a very special person for me. I can honestly say that she has even made a great influence on my entire life. We have known each other since College, so I have known her for quite a while now.
Personally I think that Henna is a very beautiful girl and generally a sociable person. However she is very ambitous, which means that she wants do better in life, that is why she is studying at University. I guess in a few years time her knolwedge will expand, after all that learning she has to do.

Memories that will never fade.
- Going to an Alicia keys concert with Henna and Martin(Martin is my other dear friend, who currently lives in Japan).
- Exchanging pens. I bought her a beautiful pen with an elephant on top, which I assumed was an Indian god. In return I got a plastic simple pen. The simple things make me happy.
- Going to Calpe in spain with two wounderful people ~Henna & Martin~.

I have so many memories on my mind, but the list is endless, so I think it's fair I finish at this point.

I am certainly sure that our friendship will never die.
Henna & Me.

Just thought I would pop in some photo's of my darling niece. I took these photo's at my aunties today. Her name is Matilda, and her mummy says the film inspired her to call her daughter Matilda. I call her Mati for short. She has the most beautiful brown eyes, and they actually change from darker to lighter depending on where she is.
I hope your all having a great weekend. Much love Jessie x

On Friday, I was fortunate enough to have found this poster...
I was thrilled to find out on the internet, that this poster was refering to a bollywood show that will be live in December. I coudn't contain my self, without a second thought I asked a friend and he bought the tickets to go see the show. Even thou I have many days left, I am already preparing myself on what to wear. I might wear something very traditional. The photo below shows my beautiful Indian dress, which I might wear.
I love India, and I do believe they have the most beautiful traditions. One of the traditions is bathing, an integral part of daily routine in every Indian's life. Special occasions call for holy dips in sacred rivers and lakes as enumerated by the scriptures. That a bath keeps us healthy through personal hygiene is a well known fact. But there are other aspects as well that are not well known. Polygraphic studies proved that water enhances electro-magnetic activity. In the context of this finding, the religious practices like washing hands and feet before entering temples and taking bath everyday, worshipping with wet clothes and offering prayer standing in the middle of water chest-deep in rivers and tanks etc., seem to be more scientific than a mere act of cleanliness. One of my favourite Indian celebrations is 'Holi', a celebration of colours. Celebrated all over India since ancient times, Holi's precise form and purpose display great variety. Originally, Holi was an agricultural festival celebrating the arrival of spring. This aspect still plays a significant part in the festival in the form of the colored powders: Holi is a time when man and nature alike throw off the gloom of winter and rejoice in the colors and liveliness of spring. My Bollywood obssesion is another story. I simply adore bollywood films, the singing and dancing, everything about it is amazing.
These are all my bollywood films, I just can't get enough =]

A package at my door?
I got the most amazing, beautifully wrapped package in the mail from one of my egyption friends, this weekend -- TOTALLY UNEXPECTED! When this gorgeous box arrived, I was trying to remember if I'd ordered something and just forgot about it. My thoughts were that a secret admirer had sent me this gift.
I was so happy about a small thing I did for my friend a while back and she simply decided to send the most amazing box of beauty!!

I coudn't resist on showing you what I actually got. A beautiful wrapped box.

Eh, it's just chocolate....". Not just any chocolate, but delicious egyption chocolate.
Obviously, it's a great gift.
Beautiful gift!
Okay, pretty downright fabulous Gift.
But it's still
just
chocolate.

So if I decide to tuck a little extra "something" into your box, it's because I just thought maybe you'd enjoy it.

Henna you know who you are, I may drop in a little suprise at your door, when you least expect it. Missing you very much Jessie x

Sheye's request: Please email this post card to every single person you know. For us. For Ava. For families who adore their children, who think they’ve covered off all the risks, who may have never thought of the dangers of their car parked outside on a normal Sunny day. Please.
Once you've saved it on your desktop the full poster will show.

In loving memory of Ava Beth Rosemeyer.
