I missed writing a blog post last night as I went out to dinner with my mother and brother. The occasion was my mother’s birthday.
While this year was not what is generally regarded as a ‘milestone’ birthday it was particularly significant to me.
8 months ago Mum was not in the best of health and over the next 3 months declined further until her open heart surgery in June. We were all well aware of the very real possibility that she may not get to celebrate her next birthday. However, the surgery was a success and Mum has recovered exceptionally well. So, it is with great joy that we were able to to celebrate her birthday yesterday evening.
Happy Birthday, Mum! May there be many more.
organised castle 
Happy that you could share another special occasion with your mum. Very special.
Thanks. I really do appreciate the opportunity.
ohhh wonderful! happy birthday to your mum (sorry it’s late, i missed this post) & may you all see many more of her ‘milestones’ she looks absolutely gorgeous there :))
thanx for sharing
Thank you. She does look pretty in pink – her favourite colour. 🙂
