"Why don't you wear those shorts that you always bounce around in every morning?" I ask Lulu as she steps out of our bedroom in a short-sleeved maxi-dress. "Because your parents are also here in the house. I can't be walking around in shorts that have half my butt-cheek out." "Why do you let people do this to us? First, we got bullied out of our own master bedroom. Now, you can't wear what we want in our own house? It feels...

Khotso is feeling a bit emotional today. He just woke up in the morning and looked like he was carrying the entire world on his shoulders. "Baby? Are you alright?"

Teboho is leading this meeting and the branding part of the shop because...

Ona is getting dressed and ready for the day while I'm dressing Mohale up and getting him ready for the day. They are meeting up with Maboko and his boys for a play date. The boys are quite close and it's exciting to see Mohale's personality grow and come out more. He is such a little Ona and I feel like he took nothing from my personality traits. Lol. "Baby", I say to Ona. "Yes, love?" "I'm worried about Letlali." He is quiet. "We can't underestimate...

Today, I'm meeting up with Oluremi at a stunning restaurant owned by Maboko – yes, my hubby is simply a business genius. The restaurant is called Rooftop. It's literally on a roof, but it's such a vibe. It has four floors and each floor is outdoors with a sunroof covering it to protect you from the sun. When you look at the building driving along the road, it looks like a staircase leading to the roof. This place is beautiful and...

We are halfway to the end of our story, and we want to celebrate with you. Thank you for keeping your eyes and imagination committed to this blog. I write for your entertainment and I can only hope that I do not disappoint. I was once asked why I love writing so much content.

"Khotso!" I yell from downstairs of my duplex. I have been on set all day today. One of my novels is being turned into a limited series and I've been called to consult on the project. I just hot home and I saw Khotso's car parked outside, so I know that he is here. "Baby!" I yell again. This guy still doesn't answer me. I make my way up the stairs. Why is he so quiet? He is not in the master bedroom. I find...

I'm meeting with my wedding planner today because he's the one who will be making sure that everything is as it should be. He is very organised and is even making me feel a bit nervous about this whole white wedding thing. I am nervous because it feels as if the date is too close and everything will not be ready on time. My wedding planner is afraid of Ona, so around Ona, he keeps it together and makes it...

Aus'Lebo and I are playing tennis just to keep fit this morning while my dad, Ntate Seete and Maboko watch the boys swim. Maboko has Ruri in his arms and he has my child wearing an oversized cap. I don't understand because Ruri has her own hats. But she also seems to be enjoying this oversized cap. She enjoys anything that she does with her father. You can already tell that she's going to be a daddy's girl. Ruri has...

Nathi is over a year old now and the second baby I have on the way has been baking in my tummy for seven months. I miss Zithulele with all my heart. I needed time and space to get our affairs in order, then I could get him out of prison and bring him home to comfort. I used an estate agent to find my ideal home in a quiet and gated suburb where we would have peace and have...
