Shout-It-Out! My mama

I want to give a shout-out to someone very special.

This is my mum. 

She is my hero.

She has and always will be a huge source of encouragement to me. 

---  Today she is graduating with a Bachelors degree of Applied Social Services---

I am SO super super proud!

She has always shown me, that you can be a strong woman and that people are important. She has achieved so much and shown integrity, persistance and faith through this journey. 

I am sad that I can't be there when she is 'capped' today but I know that there will be supporters there cheering her on.

You did it mum! The future is so bright for you.

I love you. Always.

Shout-It-Out! Sophia

I have to give a shout-out to one of my very most favourite girls in the whole world.

This is Sophia White.

She is an amazing person and today is her BIRTHDAY. She is the big 1-9. Happy birthday Soph!

She is such an awesome person - a leader in the making. Her attitude for life and God is so whole-hearted.

We first met when Soph was 13 and then I became her youth leader throughout high school. But over time, she has been more like my lil sis.

I am so proud of where you are today!

Thanks Soph, you have always been an inspiration to me and I cant wait to see what God has in store for you this year. 

Mwah.

Shout-It-Out! Brooke Fraser

I have to give a shout-out to a fave kiwi girl.

This is Brooke Fraser.

She is a legend.

Her soulful words are much needed when a kiwi girl misses home.

---  Brooke - keep holding the torch high ---

Her new album (Flags) is beautiful and so vivid in it's story-telling. 

I was so sad when I couldn't download it from itunes here in Korea (I need to spread the word) so a friend gave it too me which was so lovely (thanks Catherine!).

Check her out if you haven't.

Thanks Brooke, I'll always remember seeing you oh-so-long-ago-now at Parachute. 

Others will agree... we're proud.
