Mother's Day

April 3, 2011 by

I’m a very lucky mother to have children and a husband who understand how hard today felt, the first ever Mother’s Day without Freddie.

I had one present early, on Thursday.

Today I was woken with cards and breakfast and tea this morning which was beautifully perfect. Josie made me a really wonderful card, the best thing I have seen her do yet. (Will add a photo.)

And biscuits, made by Maddy.

Amelie made me cakes, but we ate them and forgot to take a photo. They were scrummy though!


Fran made me a cushion cover. I think it is a bit wonderful.


This evening Maddy gave me two stones she found. She says they are Mummy and Freddie. She has quite a wonderful heart, that girl.

I am very lucky.

    It looks like your girls got things just right and I am glad for that.

    I am sorry that Mother’s Day had to fall the day after Freddie’s birthday just to make things extra tough. (I was a disaster on Mother’s Day last spring and I expect to be again this year.)
