Your lucky mum Chelsea! I don't think my mum would have bought one except that she lived with me for a few months and realised that life is so much easier with it... Even if you are only cooking for 1 or 2 - you still have to eat every day...
We are blessed by our mums aren't we? Whether they are here or not - such a big influence on our lives... Mine sometimes drives me spare (esp. when we lived together!) but she is like my best friend... my heart goes out to my friends who have lost theirs – I have 2 who both lost their mum’s to cancer when they were only in their 40’s (the mums)– so they have had to do all of it – kids etc without that beautiful influence over their shoulders... I know they look wistfully at my mother and me sometimes, I wish I could share her! All I can do is be a loving and appreciative daughter... I try! I am giving her a massage tomorrow and taking her to see Harry Potter gold class next week (she is a big time HP fan!)...
Blessings to all your mums – especially those that are not here xxx
