Happy Mother's Day




All the paintings in this post were painted by my mother.




The painting below is my mother as a young child with her Grandfather. They were going to hunt for gold.




This book was one of my gifts for Mother's Day. I am going to spend many hours reading those pages.




I hope all the mother's reading this post are having a wonderful Mother's Day.

I would like to send special wishes to those who have lost their mother.

Especially my heart goes out to any mothers who have lost a child.

Today every child - made luke warm cup of tea and burnt toast is as good as a 5 star meal.

  6. What beautiful paintings, my mother was artistic too. I had to laugh about the luke warm tea and burnt toast, my son did that for me when he was 3, he got lots of cooking lessons after that (so he wouldn't burn the house down LOL).

    Happy Mother's day to you too :0)
