Being Bradley....

Today is my God-brother Bradley's birthday. He is 31 today..Now I started this blog so that I could talk about how Precious all the people in my life are... Bradley, or "My Precious Pooh Bear" as I like to call him, is one of those people.

He is amazing really and I'm not exaggerating. He is an enigma and I tell him that all the time. So private too that it is frustrating but that is also what makes him Bradley...

Some background information on my relationship with Bradley:-

We met when we were 5yrs old, became close friends not so long after that, I became as close to his family as I did to him and a while after that I became their god-child. My god-father Lazie is the pastor of our church, my god-mother Gloria is an amazing women whom I aspire to be like one day. A lady through and through. Lizette is my godsister and since I am the only girl in my family, she is the closest I will ever have to a sister and that makes me smile. Jade is Lizette's daughter, she is also entering the teenage years and my word when it comes around, it comes around hard and fast.:-). She is gorgeous though and that stresses her uncle Bradley out big time. Gran Lizzy is my godmother's mom and also such a part of my heart.

Ever wonder if events are predestined. No? I didn't think so either but looking back now, I know that God had planned for this family and I to be apart of each other's lives, long before I even knew it.

Back to Bradley... He's great. I mean he's smart.He's not a conventionally good looking guy but he is so fine and he has that something that makes him so beautiful. He's funny and he such wit about him. He's a big ol' scaredy cat. Just mention the word “heights” and suddenly he comes up with just about every excuse under the sun to not go there and do that. It's pretty amusing. He's honest. Make no mistake about it, just because you wanna hear something doesn't mean he is going to say it. He says what you need to hear. You can always count on getting the truth from him even if the truth hurts. We fight a lot.. Boy do we ever! He can be so frustrating at times. But he's a really, really good friend. He is loyal to a fault.

I'm a dreamer and a believer of fairy tales so it's good to have somebody like that in my life. God, if we ever found ourselves not in each other lives; I don't know what I would do. I mean he's my pooh bear, you know?

Well.... he's more than that ...he's everything....(or my "other man" as Riaan would put it)

So yeah...Happy Birthday my Precious Pooh Bear... I love you and wish you all of life's blessings because you deserve it.
