For my mum Edwina Rose - so much missed and loved, every day of my life. I am sorry I let you down the way I did.I hope you can forgive me. I love you, Mum xxx

And for June, my dearly loved mother-in-law. Get well, dearest June, we need and love you so much. xxx

Mother

Mother is just a little girl who trod my path before me;
Just a bigger wiser little girl who ran ahead.
Bigger, stronger, wiser girl who always watches o'er me.
One who knows the pitfalls in the rugged road I tread.

Mother is a playmate who will always treat me kindly -
Playmate who will yield me what true happiness demands.
She will never let my feet stray into brambles blindly -
Mother's just a bigger little girl who understands.

Mother is an older little playmate who'll befriend me -
Yesteryear she travelled in the path that's mine today.
Never need I fear a foe from which she may defend me -
Faithful little pal who ran ahead and learned the way.

Mother's Day is always bittersweet for me. I so wish Mum was still here to share this day with me and the grand-daughters she never got to know.

I'm so sorry you feel you let your mum down Julie. I think we all feel that way, I know I do.

And I hope your mum-in-law gets well soon.

A belated Happy Mother's Day to you.. someone who I know would give anything to keep her daughters happy. They're very lucky to have you as their mum

Big hugs

Your mother was very attractive. I am sure that you did not let her down. Family relationships can be strange affairs.

I hope that your MIL gets better and that you manage to get on top of things. Sometimes life can be overwhelming but it usually sorts itself out.

Your mum was stunningly beautiful! I'm sure she'd want you to remember her with love and happiness and not guilt. I hope your mum-in-law gets better very soon too. XXX
