Miss you always Mum, wish you were here celebrating Easter and tucking into a big roast dinner! xxx

Miss you x

Wishing you an early Happy Birthday and a small donation to your charity. This is my last post here but will visit occasionally but still think of you.
Sadly someone has removed a photo I posted hence the leaving . Xxx

Happy Birthday for the 23rd February.

Hi Mum

There are so many things that I want to talk to you about and as always ask for your wise advice.

You'd be so proud of Jay recently, he passed his 11+ with flying colours and we have applied for Sheriff, we couldn't have managed the tuition with you - so thank you so much. Wish you were here to celebrate with us.

Ginger is doing well and is truly settled in and sleeps at the bottom of my bed every night now, just like he did with you. Although, I can't say that I'm as kind as you when he wakes me up at 5:00 am full of beans!

Keisha is 21 soon and we went out to The Saxon Mill over the weekend to celebrate. We all wished you were there, 'celebrations' are just not the same without you. You were the true matriarch of our family and held everyone together.

We're dreading Christmas, Mum. I now finally understand why you were never a big Christmas fan. It sucks when you miss people. I am trying to find a few people who will be on their own for Christmas, such as the elderly, so I can make them a homemade Christmas dinner. I figure it'll keep me busy on the day and also make me feel good knowing I've helped someone who also doesn't have a 'traditional' 'family-orientated' Christmas.

I still have your Christmas money that you gave to me last year, it's still in the envelope with your lovely handwriting and message on. Perhaps I may treat myself to something this Christmas, we'll see.

Bye for now. I love you to Orgiva and back. xxx
