He did make dinner and a cake though, so can't complain. I spoke to all 3 of my daughters on the phone, and received some lovely pressies.Helenghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04963972925920465515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5101883877426552626.post-74795619163319402562016-03-09T07:21:36.178+00:002016-03-09T07:21:36.178+00:00I as, I couldn't settle until I'd seen her...I as, I couldn't settle until I'd seen her face :-) Rachel Flowershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17875808936389030446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5101883877426552626.post-9025456800409802572016-03-09T07:21:07.021+00:002016-03-09T07:21:07.021+00:00They are and I did!

No one here to make me breakfast either to be honest I don't think any of my four ever did :( I can understand just where you're coming from with your daughter my son has the same affect I look forward to him coming home but he soon drives me nuts haha. These kids of ours certainly get around don't they? mines going to Hong Kong next week for a 3 week holiday! and he has the nerve to say he's hard up. Your daughter will love living in Newcastle I'm sure my two eldest live there and love it.

I came downstairs and admittedly Thomas did wish me a Happy Mother's Day but he didn't look up from the computer. Amy rolled out of bed an hour later to watch me open her present, then rolled straight back in again. I used to get breakfast in bed as well. Scrambled eggs was the norm, it must have seemed posh to them, with one memorable year of it being accompanied by fizzy pink lemonade! Mustn't complain though, Mark made me a cooked breakfast, although I'm sure I heard him muttering "you're not MY bloody mother"!<br /><br />The napkins rings are lovely, what a nice gift from your m-i-l. I thought I hadn't missed a post about Miss 21, but didn't realise she was going for so long. And she comes home from one adventure of a lifetime in NZ to start another in Newcastle. If you're like me I bet it doesn't seem 2 minutes since you were leaving home. <br /><br />Oh and my middle name is Elizabeth. My maiden name had a 'z' in it as well so up until I got married I had one of the least used letters of the alphabet in all my names. Not that I was grateful, up until about 11 I always wished I'd been called Julie. xx <br />Everyday life at Number 38https://www.blogger.com/profile/12945846951398052455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5101883877426552626.post-87118185213576849012016-03-06T13:00:13.122+00:002016-03-06T13:00:13.122+00:00You'll have to make up for it when you are bet...You'll have to make up for it when you are better X Rachel Flowershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17875808936389030446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5101883877426552626.post-22262755152213839472016-03-06T12:59:51.440+00:002016-03-06T12:59:51.440+00:00They were all wrapped up in tissue too so it was a...They were all wrapped up in tissue too so it was a really gorgeous surprise when they were so pretty!
