It is Mother’s Day here in England. I no longer have a mother to celebrate with. But Julie is my wife, and a mother of four children, so she has something to celebrate.
She is spending time with one of her daughters this evening, but I have no idea if the other three chidren will get involved.
So happy Mother’s Day to my wife, the mother of four children. She is also a great Mum to our dog, Ollie. He cherishes her.
I hope she has an enjoyable day.
Lovely, Pete.

I hope she enjoyed it, Pete. Here the 19th of March (no matter what day of the week it is) is Father’s day, for Saint Joseph, but I lost my dad 8 years ago, so I know what you mean. Here, mother’s day is the first Sunday in May, so there’s a bit of time to go yet.

It seems like Britain is the only country to have Mother’s Day in March. No idea why that is.
Best wishes, Pete.

Hope Julie had a nice Mother’s Day. I had my family day last Saturday, but received phone calls from the boys yesterday.

She went for dinner with one of her daughters, and stopped over. They have gone off to Turkey for a week this morning.

She had dinner at her daughter’s, and stopped over. They are off to Turkey for a week today, so should avoid the dreary wet weather here. 🙂
Best wishes, Pete.

Overheard in the U.S.:
Daughter: “Do we celebrate Mother’s Day in March?”
Mother: “No, sweetie. March right over to the calendar on the wall. See that? Mother’s Day is in May.”

When my mum returned to England I had to remember to send her flowers on Mothering Sunday which is so much sooner than our Mother’s Day. I hope she didn’t need a special day to know I loved her.
