   Oh Katie, you made me giggle, and well up both at the same time :). How cute are your drawings?! That’s a beautiful representation of a glass of gin :). Love it all xx

   Happy Mother’s Day Katie – I have asked for gin because it is of course ‘mother’s ruin’ and because I am a gin-virgin and most-excellent mother x :)

   Only semi-conscious when I started reading this and thought the letter was from you to your Mum. Was vaguely thinking that Cheerios have been around for quite a while now. Best off to bed now x

   I don’t know why we have glitter in this house. ..99.9% of the time I say ‘no, not today…’ it brings me out in a cold sweat as it ingrains itself on the table. ..happy mother’s day! X

    Ha ha! It’s not Mother’s day here so I thought the first post I saw was a mistake but I guess not. Ours is in late May. Happy Mother’s day :-)

    I started my Mother’s Day stroking my son’s head as he puked, and I’m ending it be reading your blog with a glass of red in my hand. Not all bad then ;-)
