To all the mums out there (especially my own special mum). I hope your day started out with breakfast in bed, followed by kisses, cuddles and cards and is filled with peace and relaxation.

Thank you! This is a lovely painting.
My son is grown up now but he’ll phone me here in France from London. A man of few words but we’re very close. He sent me an adorable card and that’s enough for me.
I love to remember the years when he was as small as this little fellow. The memories never go away.

Oh Julie – This picture took me back – I had completely forgotten it – and as soon as I saw the little boys face I remembered the ball like plaster with the strips. I must have had this book as a child – I was a 1969 baby.
How wonderful
