Happy Birthday Mum!

My Sweet wonderful mum celebrated her 60th birthday on Monday. Unfortunately l was not able to be there with her in person, but we spoke at length on the phone. For her, age is just a number and you are only as old as you believe yourself to be. She has taught me to see birthdays as a time to count all your blessings and think about all you have accomplished so far in life.

This year marks many birthday milestones in our family. Apart from my mum's 60th, my dad will turn 65 in July, Liam will celebrate a decade in August, I turn 40 in September, Maddy enters the teens in October and my father in law turns the big 70 in October. We have some big celebrations coming up and many blessings to count.

As for my amazing mum, we plan on celebrating her birthday along with my father and father in law when they come to visit in October. After all it's not everyday one turns 60, 65 and 70.

Mum, l hope you had a great memorable day and that you continue to have a wonderful 60th year. We love you very much and can't wait to have you here with us.
