Celebrating 1 year with this incredible, wonderful, kind, giving and loving human ♥️♥️💜♥️♥️ My absolute universe 🔥🔥🔥

It's been a mad year, properly. Married, honeymoon, baby 🌪️ New business, new car, new house, new memories. Wild 😍

Marrying you was the best decision I've ever made. Thinking about that day and just how calm and at peace I was. There were no nerves, no sweats, no concerns. Just this feeling like I was finally grounding with the world and all the chaos was finally silent, I was so ready for the next step in our journey. ♥️♥️💜♥️♥️

We flew straight into the most incredible honeymoon and then immediately started our journey bringing in our little rockstar into existences ☄️☄️☄️

You gave me the single greatest gift I could possibly ask for. How much I wanted to have my own little sprog, the sacrifice you put your body through to give me that.... I am so insanely blessed 🙏🙏🙏

I am absolutely besotted with you. I love you more today than yesterday. I love making you laugh. I love every second we spend together. I love our moments. I love our good days. I love our bad ones. I love making you coffee. I love surprising you. I love catching you off guard. I don't and probably will never love getting your water from downstairs once I've got into bed... But I'll get it anyway because I love you ♥️♥️💜♥️♥️

Happy 1 year my love, to the many many many more we're about to have. We've got this 👊 We've got the steps ahead, we've got eachother, we've got the sprog and hooligans ♥️♥️💜♥️♥️ Let's keep making more memories 🔥🔥🔥

Feeling super blessed at the moment 👏👏👏 Between these two my fulfilled meter is peaking at a ridiculous rate 🔥🔥🔥 Becoming a Dad has been the best thing to happen in my life. Little Lyric has all the sass, all the personality, has me fully wrapped around her little finger 😍😍😍 it's wild experience with all the feels and wonderment that this little peanut brings. Yoh, she's proper sassy 🙏😌

Then there's my incredible wife, who continues to show why she is the best Mum (Mom☝️) in the world.❤️❤️💜❤️❤️ The way she is with Lyric is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen. It's really like a Superpower. Especially in those deer in headlight moments for me, and she saves the day for the both of us 🤣🤣🤣 So graceful, loving, soft and gentle. 😍😍😍 Everyday she shows me how to be a better Dad, a better Husband and a better person.

Truly love these two with all my heart and every fibre of me ❤️❤️💜❤️❤️ It's been a gift these past few months and I wake up everyday so excited to see how the new chapter unravels.

After 2 weeks in NICU... we finally brought Lyric home tonight. 😭🏡💖

No one can ever prepare you for seeing your baby connected to monitors, wires, and feeding tubes. Leaving her at the hospital every day was one of the hardest things I've ever had to do. The heartache was overwhelming, and the mum guilt was very real. 😔💕

Through it all, God has carried us, given us strength, and reminded us that we were never walking this journey alone. 🙏❤️

We have also been incredibly blessed by the most amazing family and friends. Over the past two weeks, so many of you brought us meals, checked in on us, prayed for us, and simply reminded us that we were loved. It may seem like a small gesture, but not having to worry about grocery shopping or cooking while spending every day at the hospital made a world of difference. We will never forget your kindness. 🥹🍽️

A special thank you to Nue, Kim, Faye, Shannon, Petra, Sian, my wonderful in-laws Stewart & Wendy for constantly checking in on us, my parents for all the advice and support, and my sister Lashe and cousin Amber for every phone call and encouragement. ❤️

Our little girl is finally home, and our hearts are so full. Thank you to everyone who prayed, sent messages, and supported us through one of the toughest seasons of our lives. We're so grateful. 🩷🏡👶✨

Stumbled by Your Support❤️

Since our first post to inform the community, the wave of love from the South African music scene has been completely overwhelming. We are honestly stumbling over our words trying to express how thankful we are for the support you have shown us. It is the only thing keeping our heads up right now.

How You Can Help

- Donate: No amount is too small. Every Rand helps us get Aiden back behind the kit and back to work.
- Share: Keep the story moving. The more eyes we have on the second-hand market, the harder it is for this gear to be moved.
