My First Mothers Day As A Mum Of 2

So this time last year I was a mum of one, but now I have two gorgeous children to enjoy on mothers day.

I was awoken this morning at 6.30am by my little baby girl and then in walks the excited four year old, he had the biggest smile on his face as he remembered it was mothers day.  He gave me a big kiss and cuddle and then instructed his dad to get the bag in a whisper.  Then, in he walks with a huge bag with a gorgeous big black bow on the front.  He then gets out the first item 'here's your new slippers, mam',  haha!  Then, 'here's your new dressing gown', and so on he went announcing what the gifts were as he handed them to me.  All I could do was laugh and enjoy the moment.  Gone are the days where you open your own gifts!

I was then given, in bed, a lovely breakfast with my 10 month old between my legs pinching bits of croissant crumbs off the duvet.  I was spoilt with some croissants and preserves and a lovely warm coffee to start my first mothers day as a mum of 2!

After breakfast, as I ignored the crumbs in the bed, you've got to let some things go on mothers day, we had a lovely stroll along the beach.  On the way down, we followed the leader, along the riverbank onto the beach, dodging muddy puddles.  I enjoyed every minute of it, looking at how my first baby has grown so much and is one day I'm sure going to be a leader, of what I'm not sure!

Now, we're back at the ranch, and I've had a leisurely read of the sunday papers, baby is napping, and I've been handed an icy cold glass of white wine whilst the four year old is engrossed in Shrek.  Why not hey?  It would be rude not to!

Hope all of you yummy mummies out there are having as good a day as I am!

Happy Mothers Day!
