Mums the word

It's just a thought...but could I have discovered the secret of Mother's Day happiness?

One thing is certain; things seem better when I lower my expectations.

Which means that this year, when offspring are thin on the ground, I appreciate anything and everything and most importantly everybody. It works much better if I regard it as Mothers-Day-to-do-what-a-Mother-does.

(and to be truthful, I never really enjoyed soggy cornflakes in bed!)

To be honest, I couldn't care less about Mother's Day. I think it's all a big con - just don't tell this lot, will you?

Lowering your expectations is something that I find I am having to do. You know what? I am just as happy.

Nuts in May
