Happy Heavenly 90th Birthday Mum
Today is Mum's 90th Birthday and I am simply celebrating the fact that my Mum was, and always will be, my beloved Mum.
We have so very many wonderful memories of cherished birthdays in the past, with lovely family photos of happy celebrations and good times. We love and miss Mum every minute of every day, but we know that she is with Dad, Campbell, and so many other loved ones and friends.
The rosebush that Dad bought in her memory only ever blossoms on special occasions, and incredibly right now - for the first time ever - we have four beautiful roses at the same time. As Gael's fiance Kyle joins our family, we can't help but reflect on how many different messages those four roses could symbolise - each interpretation poignant and wonderful.
We are eternally grateful for the love and guidance that my cherished Mum continues to give us every day, and the signs that mean the world to us. So on her birthday, I'm sending her the same heartfelt message that I do every other day:
"I would pick you in any lifetime".
With infinite love,
Happy Heavenly 90th Birthday Mum,
from Kirsteen, Douglas and Gael xxxx
