Son love
Sunday, 2 August 2009


YS gave me permission to show you this card he drew for my birthday. He asked me what my favourite animal was and drew a monkey swinging from a tree. The big bird flying up high in the sky is decorative. Both are drawn with much love. The words are "you're pretty, you're nice, you're young, you're cheery." Who could ask for more from a birthday card? I am truly blessed.
OS drew me an intricate and wonderful comic and gave me the pot he made from the clay we gathered from the river bed. Beautiful boys, beautiful soulful gifts.

I love your younger son's card, especially the trees. Bet the clay pot is beautiful too. You are a lucky mummy indeed. Happy Birthday!

Happy Belated Birthday!
What a darling son you have. If the world were smaller - I'd love for our boys to play ;-(
Cherish every moment!

What a great card. YS is a very good drawer (?) - artist? I still draw birds as 2 lines!

Excuse me, Did I just say, "Thank you everyone for your lovely comments"? Or was I just signed in and SOMEONE took liberties with my account?
It's mystery…
Still, OS is a credit to his mum, and so observant too: pretty, nice, young and cheery. Absolutely!

I love the card!! The trees are totally wonderful!! (There is a website that you can submit drawings to and they will print them up as fabric...those trees would make a lovely cushion!!)

Kelly: Hi and thank you for visiting my blog - yours sounds intriguing. I will pop by for a visit.
Nicola: Me too, we could have a maternal emotional moment together.
Carol: The trees are rather spectacular, aren't they? What's the address of the site where they can be turned into fabric prints?
