mam moans every year about mothers day being a waste of money, but still I buy for her as she does for her mam. This year I have written poems in the cards mam and nan) because they say what I can't find the words to. Mam is getting a mother of pearl necklace and I have to find something for nan. I refuse to buy flowers as my uncles will get them as always. Still there is plenty of time as I said I would take gifts home with me at easter to save posting

Well it's mother's day on Sunday, what will you be doing? If your one of the lucky one's that still have her around, I suggest you spoil her rotten, I would. I used to alway buy her flowers (not just on Mothers' day mind) and she loved Coty L'aimont perfume. Oh I miss you so much mum.xxx
