My gorgeous sister is always sending me these funny emails. Half the time I
don't have time to read them (sorry T) but when I do it is always worth
it. This one was from today, very funny.......
A Grade 1 teacher had twenty-six students in her class. She presented each child in her classroom with the 1st half of a well known proverb and asked them to come up with the remainder of the proverb. It's hard to believe these were actually done by first graders. Their insight may surprise you. While reading, keep in mind that these are 6 year olds, because the last answer is a classic!

Baby R is such a lucky boy. His mummy is so completely in love with him. Her whole focus is on him and she is just doing the most wonderful job. And I just couldn't believe baby R was only 7 weeks old, he seemed alot older, there must be something pretty powerful in mum's breast milk because he is growing at an amazing rate. And mum told me that she isn't very photogenic, my goodness, if only I was that unphotogenic LOL. She's just absolutely gorgeous, I hope she can see that in these photos.
Just wanting to send a huge shout out and cyber bunch of flowers to all of my friends and clients who are mother's today...........sometimes it's a thankless task LOL, but mostly it is the most joyful thing in the world.
To all of the new mummies, having their first Mother's Day, I hope you enjoy this amazing first, and may you enjoy many more.
To all of you seasoned mummies out there, I hope your kiddies spoil you rotten with love and presents and chocolate and champagne and foot rubs and special meals and all the housework done for you and, who am I kidding, I hope you get at least one of those things LOL.......!
Here are some autumn photos I took the other day, full of colour and softness and love and newness, just like our children...........I am raising my glass to all of you wonderful Mother's, no one appreciates how hard we work I don't think, so I think we should pat each other on the back for all of the love, hard work and sacrifices, here's cheers to you!
