Lost friendship and broken trust….

Over the past few months, I had been receiving some ugly comments on Leah’s blog…. the person sending them was not to clued up on how blog comments worked because little did she know that I have to moderate them first before they could be viewed by the reader… Unfortunately I was still subjected to reading what this sick person had to say about my family and especially about Leah.

I remember sending an e-mail to Tonya (Knoahs mom) asking her if she had ever been in this situation. I initially thought it was as sick person like the one who had stolen pictures from the LPOA site to create that nasty website aimed to poke fun at people with dwarfism… I tried to trace the e-mail address  were the comments were coming from with the help of a very clued up  computer whizz  friend, he concluded that it was someone in South Africa but that was the only information he could come up with.I decided to  e-mail  the address and  to all my friends with the hope that they might recognize it from somewhere.

You decided to forward a joke to a few friends from this “spare” e-mail and that’s when I received the call early Sunday morning informing me that I do in fact know who the user of the e-mail adress is and the joke was copied to me as proof…. So I went onto my facebook account to announced that I had finally traced to sick person who was commenting on Leah’s blog “I was shocked that you called me to ask who it was  when you knew very well you were the culprit …

This is for you MY SO CALLED  friend

• You called me “An attention seeker”
• You mentioned that there will always be “employment for M*#%ts at the circus as they are good for a laugh”
• You said that I should go to the vet and ask them to “Put my broken bird down”
• You said “stay away from sharp object her “fat head” might pop

The wont post any more as some comments are really graphic….

Dear Friend
I trusted you, I confided in you, you held Leah in your arms  when she was just 3hrs old… you said she was special and called her your little butterfly.

When I asked you why you did this you said, “Im tired of seeing Leah get all the attention and my child is always ignored when she was around.”???????????

Did you ever stop to think that it’s not the type of attention you think it is!!!!!!!!
Leah has to go through a lifetime of nasty stares and comments were as you will walk through the mall not having to hear “Oh shame she’s so small” “Oh look at here big head”
Dear friend I know you will read this…. my only regret is that I trusted you and I wish I never did. I guess its true when they say,
“Your lies will catch up with you”

I wish you and your family well and I hope you don’t do this to someone else because you will never know how much you hurt me.

Photographer in the making

My little sister Eunice (who is all grown up now) has chosen a career path in photography, this means that ever so often the girls become the stars of her work….. Eunice has recently been voted top of the class and been called a “natural” when she has the camera in her hand.

One of her recent assignments was to shoot portraits that depict love… the lecturer said he wanted to be able to “feel love” by looking at the shots…… needless to say I saw the finished product and was quite surprised and I see why they say she is a natural!!!!

I Cant wait to have my very own Blog photographer!!!

Now we just need to get our little model to part ways with the pasifier !!!

Just the right height

A while back … well make that about 6 months before Leah was born we did a renovation to our bathroom. We completely guttered the place!!! And I mean we even went a far as ripping out the ceilings!!!!

At that stage of my pregnancy we were not a aware of the “Little person” that was to enter our lives…. we just knew that it was going to be a “new little person” that would grow up as fast as the other 2 “little persons” we already had… but as we all know it was a “little one” who would be little for a long while :-).

The most amazing part of this renovation is… The toilet that was delivered was the wrong height it was far to low and they installed it without us being there so once it was in it was to late to replace with a higher seat (which was our original order) and the clip that holds the hand shower attachment was placed in the wrong position and we could not alter that fitting because that meant we would be left with a hole in the wall!!!!!!!!!!!!

So there was a few thing that did not go according to plan…. Or so we thought!!!! A perfect little shower and just the right height toilet for when Leah is older… and seen as Leah is going to have to live and adapt to a world created for average height people we don’t mind living with a toilet that is slightly to low and a shower handle that’s out of position…  we love and would not change a thing about Leah…. And the same goes for our bathroom.Sometimes things just happen for a reason unknown to us at that specific time 🙂

that feels just about right!!
