Thanks for posting that Simon. I'm sorry your mum has passed on. I hope you still feel her love and presence with you. I'm glad you're spending the day with your nan. I bet she'll love that. I once took my mum and my nana to a Roger Whittaker concert for Mother's Day and they both said it was the best Mother's Day they had ever had. I lost my nana a couple of years later, so I'm so glad I spent that special day with her.
I live in Canada, so the 18th isn't Mother's Day here, but it is my birthday. So, I will definitely be talking to my mum on that day and telling her I love her and thanking her for giving birth to me. I think it's appropriate to say thanks to a mum on one's birthday, don't you?
