I can't believe its a Monday yet again, and I am taking part in Magic moments . I don't know if its just me but it seems the older I get the faster the time goes. This week it was Mothers day in the UK. I think its a great time to spend time with your family or to remember mums that may not be around anymore. I fit into both areas really. I have my own lovely family but I also lost my mum to cancer some 23 years ago. My mum did pass away on Mothers day so it is a bit bitter sweet for me. I can think of her now without being sad and remembering the happy times.
I am very lucky as I have two wonderful children, who have grown into fab adults. Matthew is my oldest and he is the most lovely young man. I am so proud of him and all he has achieved in his life. He is married to Karen who is a delightful young lady. I'm am so excited that in June they have having my first grandson and I can't wait to meet him.
Natalie is my daughter and in the last two years she had done so much, I am amazed at how she has changed her life. She has lost a huge amount of weight and took herself back to university to be a nurse. She has a lovely partner called Ian and I am very proud of her.
I have tried to be a good mum. I really hope I have and I really hope they both know that they are my life and I love them with all my heart. I expect I have made mistakes but in general I think or hope they would say they had a good upbringing.
They were so lovely to me on Mothers day . Natalie and Ian gave me a lovely card and some money to spend at the next cake show I am going to. Matthew and Karen bought me a cute teddy , and lovely heart and a watch and cooked us dinner.
I'm very blessed and I hope all mums got the attention they deserved on Sunday.
awww my lovely i am so pleased you had such a lovely mothers day :-)

DeleteI am so pleased you had a lovely Mothers day but I can understand the day being hard for you. It was hard for me too, it was my first Mothers Day without my Mummy, who passed 4mths ago this week.
ReplyDeleteDoes it get any easier as the years pass? #magicmoments xx
Ah debs I'm so so sorry for your loss . I can so understand my mum passed away on Mother's Day which was so hard. It does get easier really it will. In time you will be able to think of her without feeling so sad. Remember all those happy times you had with her and smile. She wouldn't want you to be sad and fingers crossed we will see them again one day xxxxx
DeleteAwww...sorry for your lost. YOu have wonderful children for making such effort #magicmoments
