mothers day and a special birthday

i have to say that mothers day is one of my favorite days ..

it is the day spent with my children and grandchildren and celebrating with the family..

i also think about my mum who still should be here and who died from breast cancer 24 years ago..

we have a birthday too my 5 year old grandson and oodles of chocolate gateaux..

the beautiful stocks are from my daughter who knows that i hanker for all things vintage and english flowers..

i shall relax now and enjoy their heady fragrance for a few days and be thankful for all the good things in my life...
