We had the unveiling on June 26 this year to commemorate the first year of the passing of my beautiful sister Ada and all the days and weeks leading up to it were filled with emotion and recollections.
On June 27 of this year I lost another beautiful sister in law to that effing disease cancer, even though we were told in March that she would only have another two or three months nothing ever prepares you for when it happens. I was 19 when I first met her - she was just a young girl about 11 years old and we slowly grew old together gathering children and grandchildren on the way but she will always be younger than me and somehow I find that a little unfair although ours is not to reason why!.
On a happier note toku hoa rangatira Eru turned 75 on July 17 and we had a small but wonderful little celebration with whanau at his favourite watering hole Mokai Awhina Club in Tuakau.
E mihi mahana, mihi tino aroha ki te whanau whanui tonu mo ta ratou tautoko, awhi hoki ki a ia me maua whanau mo tona ra whanau..Ka rawe koutou!!
Winter is here with not so much a venegance, it has been quite mild actually but there's been a lot of rain so maybe that's why it's not as cold as in past years and even though it's that time of year when there's a national sluggishness as a result the world is forever turning and as certain as day follows night and night follows day, there will be another Spring, followed by another Summer and so on and so on...confirming always that time truly does keep on slipping, slipping, slipping into the future...but Port Waikato will always be forever beautiful.
