I'm going to have trouble getting that image out of my mind, now. :) Oh, and, indeed, about the children. Thank you. I think I like your mum, gentledove…a politician in a miniskirt!

Yep, "those" parents. And those children, too. And sisters, brothers, uncles, aunt and cousins; friends, and blogging buddies like you. ;) I'm not sure how it all works, but I do know there are real and useful lessons we can learn from our relationships. It's so important to stay congruent within oneself, and ask oneself what feels right in this moment. From that strong place we can best serve others. Thank you very much, seeing!

The thought that we pick our parents is a hard one for people to swallow. I think most don't want that accountability! "Not THOSE parents" yep : ) Those parents. Well said Muse.

It was very nice. We had three kinds of pasta, and four salads, and although we had no strawberry-related desserts, we did have apple pie and fudge. Many people in my area live away from family, so it's pleasant to get together with friends. And how was your tea, Magick? bead, the gardening sounds great, and I'm sure your rising is a very nice scorpion! I did in fact spring from Pluto, I just didn't want to blow my cover here on earth. Guess the game's up now. ;) thebeadden and Magik Quilter, aren’t you both nice to ask about the potluck, thanks! It was very nice.

And we’re often extremely nice people, too. ;) I love hearing how you were allowed to explore any ideas you wanted to, growing up. Here here! Hope your gardening goes well (I prefer that term to “yard work”, as it sounds less like “work” :) ), and have a beautiful weekend." I always try to be nice and stay positive. But the scorpio rising sometimes gets the better of me. :) I keep it in check for the most part. The yard is looking better. I'll have to remember to leave the "work" part of it out next time because you are right, it is refreshing. You didn't spring from Pluto? :) I hope your potluck dinner was good.

So I don't really know what it is like to give a mothers day card or prezzie. I know the kids love making their cards for 'Mom' (Mum) and getting a nice little present for her. This year it being a small box of her favourite chocolates. So I wish all Mums all the best for mothers day. :) I haven’t had a mother since the age of…..9.

Sounds scrumptious, <strong>Magik</strong>, and I'll imagine you having your tea. I haven't had a proper afternoon tea in a while, and there's a couple of places 'round here that "do it up right" with scones and cucumber sandwiches. You've reminded me to enjoy that on another occasion. Your teacups sound beautiful---could you be tempted to put up a photo on your blog? :) I'll be attending a committee meeting on the day. It's our usual meeting time, and only two people can't come because of family obligations. We'll follow the meeting with a potluck dinner and dessert (although I don't know if we'll be able to rival yours!) and we'll toast those who are mothers, those who have them, and those who are absent. You deserve every bit of that pampering you're expecting. :D There're plenty of us unusual ones out there,<strong> BD,</strong> if we know where to look! And we're often extremely nice people, too. ;) I love hearing how you were allowed to explore any ideas you wanted to, growing up. Here here! Hope your gardening goes well (I prefer that term to "yard work", as it sounds less like "work" :) ), and have a beautiful weekend. Oh, you are a witty bloke, <strong>B0bby</strong>!: "*nods mutely*"---Your mute nod speaks volumes and I appreciate it. :) I think you and your brother have the right idea, making your own cards. It's much more personal. But of course there's value in every loving thought, no matter how expressed. Yes, Mom's day in the US is always the second Sunday in May. Since blogging is international (I SO love this!) I looked it up before my post, and found this is true in Australia, Canada, and many other countries. You lot in the UK and Ireland do have it earlier, though, don't you? This <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mother's_Day" rel="nofollow">wikipedia link</a> has a chart showing celebrations all over the world. I know you've been wanting that garden, <strong>joan</strong>, and I can just see you surrounded by all your lovely things! It seems you have a wonderful and companionable family, and I'm so pleased for all of you. Have a very lovely day; week; life! :) Mmmm, sponge cake with strawberries and cream!
