Mum's the word...

Yesterday was Mother's Day - (Happy Mother's Day again Mum) - and it was Mel's very first!

Yes, Jessica and I remembered (don't know why I had to remember - she's not my mother! hee hee), and Jessica sent me out with a small shopping list to thank her Mum for all she does, and all she is. The previous night Jessica was running a temperature, and wouldn't sleep, and would cry and scream intermittently (all related to new teeth we think) so by the time Mother's Day came around, an exhausted Mel finally felt that she had earned the accolade! I think you only officially qualify for Mother's Day if you've nursed a baby through a temperature with a cold wet flannel, so Mel made the grade with only hours to spare. (Only kidding of course - she's been a wonderful Mum since the first day of the pregnancy, and keeps getting better).

Here's a special Mother's Day clip that I had to share: it reminds me SO much of my own family (thanks Deb for the link). Enjoy:
