Today in the UK it is Mother’s Day so I have to wish my Mum and my Grandma a very very Happy Mother’s Day.
(I even created this little picture thingyme for my Mum (I know it’s not that great looking and luckily I sent my Mum some flowers and a card so she got a pretty version. I should stick to taking photos!)!)
Mother’s Day is a celebration honoring mothers and motherhood, maternal bonds, and the influence of mothers in society. It is celebrated on various different days in many parts of the world so those of you in Australia don’t panic you haven’t forgotten!
Here is a picture of me and my Mum which I LOVE when I was a little bit *cough* younger:
My Mum is a very important person to me and I am so glad that she is my Mum. She has given me the support I needed all through my life to do what I wanted to do or be, be it qualifying as a Solicitor or moving to Australia she has always been there for me making things possible even when it was something she didn’t really want to happen and for life to be that little bit easier.
I’ve said it before but will say it again, thank goodness for the technology that we have now so that I can speak to her on text, iMessage, FaceTime, Skype, Facebook etc etc etc. It means that even though we’re in different countries we still speak all the time just like we are together. It is amazing.
I really wish I was there so I could take her out for lunch and give her a break from the day to day things she does but it’s another thing to look forward to when they all get to Australia in just 84 days!!!
I also did a search on the internet for nice thoughts on Mother’s Day and liked the one I found below:
