Mum's Birthday:)
Mum passed away late September 2006...peacefully in the late hours of the evening. She was few months short of her 80th birthday, which is today:) Mum was the youngest in her family. Her parents had her late in life, so I was told. She was really raised by her eldest sisters, and in her teens was sent to boarding school ...I don't think she really liked it, but had to endure it I would imagine. Her parents had a very outgoing and social life, by the time she was born, they didn't really have room to look after another toddler in between lunches commitments and dinners parties, so she had lots of family carers/housekeepers looking after her in her childhood years!...She also had her brother, only couple of years older than her to play with and I can imagine her, during those formative years, getting so attached and reliant on her siblings' tightly knit loving bond, making her feel so protected and special:) Sifting through old pictures as, my sister and I, were clearin
