Bittersweet Mother's Day

Seems like an odd thing to say, but it really hit me when all the Mother's Day blurb started going up in the shops, that I don't have a Mum any more. The first year ever that I haven't bought or made a card. Its weird. You expect them to always be there, somehow. Miss you, Mum, hope you are happy. Have a good Mother's Day, wherever you are.

On the other hand, Mother's Day reminds me that I am blessed with three wonderful boys, who I love very much, and who love me too.

Connor went into the shop all by himself, chose this bear for me, and took it to the checkout. Such a grown up little fella. And I love the card he made on the computer, digi art is maybe his future :)

The big boys will no doubt lavish me with gifts when they finally get out of bed (yeah yeah, course they will :D)
