Schmidt clan

We're the mixed (up) clan who reign from South Africa (but originally from Scotland and Holland) and Germany. My great grandfather and mother and are part of the "Logan" clan. Also got a lot of Afrikaans blood in my veins. My husband, Michael, on the other hand is German...with a strong liking for burgers - the Mac sort. This leaves us with our nickname "McSchmidt"somehow bringing us both under the same umbrella and uniting our heritage. Do our poor kids have any hope with us lot as parents!?!

Valentine's Day

I had the best start to Valentine's Day....

Josephine still comes into our bed sometime in the middle of the night. In the wee hours of the 14th, I couldn't sleep. I went to bed at midnight after baking stacks of little cupcakes with hearts for KG. Somewhere around 1am she slipped into our bed and fell asleep immediately. A while later I heard her talking in her sleep:
"I love my Mummy" (she now sometimes calls me mUummy)....just made me all warm and fuzzy inside! And soon afterwards she was chuckling to herself in her sleep. :-)
