I am so excited, the gsport awards voting poll is up and it is time to make your vote count, as we go in search of our four Leading Ladies of the Year. I was reading through back editions of the gsport monthly magazine and it was inspiring to re-read their stories, and acknowledge what amazing women our country living in our country.
The team is busy designing invitations, tweaking the guest list, going through menu options, and doing various other things, as we prepare for the 2009 gsport Awards. It is hard to believe that the first half of the year is almost a thing of the past.

Becoming a parent is tough, it takes you out of your comfort zone, and you are forced to learn. We have been fortunate to have a strong network of individuals who care have a keen understanding about birth, babies, and parenthood – this allowed us to learn as much as possible before and after the birth of Daniel.
It seems as though just about everyone is having babies at the moment. My friend Leanne Manas of Morning Live fame is expecting her first child in the next few months. We are so excited for her and Marc. My sister-in-law, Evelyn, is also pregnant, due in a few weeks time.
Things could not be better. Daniel is in good health and great spirits, the gsport Awards is coming, and cricket is on a major high. It is an exciting time to be South Africans. If there was a place to see out the recession, SA may be it.
