A Mother’s Day Tribute

I was so lucky to have my mum in my life for so long – 65 years! This year is my 10th year without her but I often feel she is with me still.

My mum and I – 1946

Mum’s 97th birthday 2010.

Dear mum ….. she put up with so much from her girls. Our best effort was a Mother’s Day picnic we had planned at the Botanical Gardens in Brisbane. There was no where to park when we got there so off we went in search of a nice park somewhere. We had no luck, so with rumbling tummies and a picnic basket of yummy food we set up our picnic on a wide median strip in the middle of a suburban street. It wasn’t quite what we planned but mum went along with it – and reminded us every Mother’s Day about her picnic in the middle of the road!

Love you and miss you ❤️. Happy Mother’s Day Mum.
