Chrysanthemum and dahlias in the dining room |
I can without a doubt say that being a mother to my children is the best part about my life (being a wife to their father is just as good too) so I celebrate being a mother every day in my heart. The kids really like secretly making cards and making or buying a little gift though and I gladly receive them. Tom even made me a card and sent me a chocolate because he does know my weakness. We had a lovely morning tea this morning with my Mum and Dad. Mum brought me these flowers and me being me, I will snip a bit off the bottom of the 'mums to strike for planting. It usually works and plants for free are a treat.

Tim often seems to be rostered on to work Easter, Christmas and days marked as special on the calendar. Today was no exception. But he didn't miss out on a morning tea, we had a nice cream tea together last week in the garden. I think I missed out on playing tea parties as a child and I more than make up for it now, making an everyday cuppa an occasion. Thankfully I have a family that indulges my idiosyncrasies without complaint.
Now in an indulgence of my own (after I lock the poultry away for the day), I am going to sit about by the fire, crochet for a while and watch
Anne of Green Gables. Dinner is easy tonight because it is Sunday soup night
.
I do hope that everyone has had a happ Mother's Day, I have

Happy Mother's Day, Tracy! You've got the important stuff figured out. :)
Sounds like you had a lovely Mother's Day and a lovely family to share it with :)
Hi Tracy - glad you had a lovely Mother's Day. I did too. Hope you enjoyed watching Anne of Green Gables. I loved the books and the series was pretty good too - I must try and find the DVDs to show my daughter.
