My mum....

Our mum referred to us as her princesses....she loved us to bits. How blessed were we! She was certainly our queen, yet she and dad gave us space as we grew up, there to love and listen but never to impose or interfere. This photo was taken at her 90th birthday party and she is giving a little speech.... never one to miss a moment to praise us! 

She almost reached her 92nd birthday.

A very happy Mothering Sunday service this morning and each child made a little Book of Mum and every mum and every lady received a bunch of daffodils....because many women have mothered us during our lives in many ways....given love, care, advice, shoulders, hugs, frowns, reminders, discipline.....we will know.
