My Real Life Angel


Shani is what "inner and outer beauty" is all about. She is the most sweetest, smartest, funniest, thoughtful, supportive, talented and loving souls I've ever met.

We became fast friends and talk daily. She lifts my spirits with humour and heart.

Poor doll, she's had such a tumultous year. And yet she's always happy for me.

She was my biggest fan when I was pregnant with Zara. And she's not even maternal.

And how many friends would promise you a kidney if you ever needed it? Or offer to pay for your next tattoo?? Not many.

I can only hope I'm as good of a friend to her. Thank you Shanilicious, you're a real sweetie-pie!

We're like Mary and Rhoda. But can we both be Mary???

Here is a cute rap song Shani just wrote for baby Z...


BABY Z RAP
YO CHECK IT OUT I’M BABY Z
ME SO CUTE AS CUTE CAN BE
SKIN SO SMOOTH JUST LIKE SILK
MUST BE FROM DRINKIN’ ALL THAT MILK
LOVE TO CRUISE IN MY BUGABOO
GOIN’ SHOPPING AT THE ‘FREW
UH OH .. DAT MY DIAPER FILLING?
WHEW, FALSE ALARM, I’M JUST CHILLIN’
I MELT HEARTS WITH MY SMILE,
I’M ROCKIN’ THE HOUSE ZARA STYLE!

I have no idea how I stumbled onto your blog but I just wanted to say that this is one of the sweetest posts about a friend I've ever seen.

Because of this alone, you must change the name of your blog from Almost-Cool to Totally-Cool!

Dear Pendullum,

They think they did FAB. Aside from Britt saying "yah" instead of "yes". It takes a few weeks but I shall advise when they get the results!

Thank you for asking!

I knew Shani was a special soul the moment I met her. And what a talented lass too. Love, love, love the rap!
