1. Freshly picked cherry tomatoes, one of the few things that seem to be growing without being eaten by the bugs or destroyed by the neighbourhood cats grrr.
2 & 3. At the cross country races, colouring in while waiting.4 & 5. My family having a giggle at how Molly was enjoying the breeze in her face, Miami beach.
6 & 7. Rocks proudly shown and messages written in the sand.
8. The end of the day.
A few photos of the week, mostly the weekend. A busy weekend but a wonderful one. I feel so blessed to be called Mum, to be loved so much and be given beautifully written cards and a song just for me, gifts made and chosen so thoughtfully. It can be tricky sometimes navigating this journey of motherhood, moments like today truly make it one beautiful and rewarding life I get to live.
I hope all the Mums out there had a very special day celebrating.
Joining in with the lovely Em.
I'm so glad your weekend was fabulous
ReplyDeleteI agree that the mothering journey is somewhat fraught at times but the joys are unbeatable!
Lovely shots Catherine

My children are older than yours, scattered here and there. It is nice to remember when they made little gifts for me, and cards. And then there where hugs, and lots of love. Now it is different, but they still remember me, either by iMessage, text, or a phone call. I might not have received gifts, cards or hugs, but the love is still there!
ReplyDeletethese are stunning again and your family is so beautiful x
ReplyDeletelove how you thoughtfully pointed out the 'bee' for any other passes by....so considerate! x
ReplyDeleteYour Mother's Day sounds quietly delightful also.
ReplyDeleteLove #5, a wonderful beach scene......

ReplyDeleteI love the beach photos, so moody and gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, love the beach when it a bit cooler
ReplyDeleteLooks to me Catherine like goal number 2 on your goals list for this year is coming along nicely :) since I started reading your blog your photography has changed, it looks to me like you are seeing light differently it is showing up in your photos beautifully giving them more layers. How are the cushion and knitting goals going? :) xx
ReplyDeleteI hope your mother's day was beautiful Catherine! Your images tell a story xx
ReplyDeleteHow lovely to be able to spend Mother's day on the beach. I love the photo of your family and Molly with wind in her face!! Hugs Wendy
