MOTHER'S DAY

Mother's Day was created as a day for each family to honor their mother, celebrated on various days in many places around the world.
For mumsie, maybe mumsie could steal a few lines from some of mumsie's favourite songs to express mumsie 's feelings about mumsie's MUM

From Freddie Aguilar "ANAK"
When you were born into this world
Your mom and dad saw a dream fulfilled
The answer to their prayer
You were to them a special child
You'll never know how far they'd go
To give you all their love can give
To see you through

From George Goban " You Raise Me Up"

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains
You raise me up , to walk on stormy seas
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders

From the Church's Hym " Mother OF Mine"
Mother of mine, when I was young,
You showed me the right way things had to be done
Without your love where would I be
Mother sweet mother of mine
(This song never fail to bring tears in mumsie's eyes whenever mumsie sings this)

Anyway this year mumsie celebrated the day with mumsie's 2 sons....COS most of the time
only one is present or none....And even Dadda came to church with mumsie this morning.....
(mumsie went to Mass with David, Daniel and DADDA!!!!!!-mumsie was over the moooooon)
The mass ended with the Priest calling all the mothers out to give us a special blessings...
Wonder if you remember mumsie talking about this Indian lady who goes to daily masses and will remind us to pray for her children and grandchildren ect ect..well today after the blessings as we were walking back to our seats..someone asked her how many children had she and she proudly answered "4" but she added none of them is around and she broke down and cried...
All mumsie could do was give her a HUGE HUG and said we will pray for them and then mumsie ran happily and proudly back to my seat AND JOIN DADDA AND MY TWO SONS!!!
Dadda took mumsie the 2 sons..and Yee Tze to a very nice dinner at mumsie's favourite Italian
Restaurant at Holiday Inn...was able to take a few photos.....
And Jie-jie sent this card with a big basket of flowers.......Thank you.....it really makes mummy's eyes misty when she came home from work today and saw it.....


From all mumsie's little ones....
Mumsie got these flowers for mumsie's altar...
And this basket of flowers is from the CHUS to Mother Mary at Church (yearly mumsie will send this to the church) but this year as mumsie put the basket of flowers in front of Mother Mary..Dadda, David and Daniel were there toooooooooooooo!!!
At the entrance of "Capri" mumsie's favourite Italian Restaurant
A "loving" photo with Dadda at the entrance of the restaurant
David and Yee Tze
David had this....cod and salmon
Yee Tze had this...cod and salmon

Danny Boy had this ..some sea food thingi wrapped with Mazorola cheese...
Mumsie had this chicken wrapped in cheese ..

Koh-koh and Ye Tze got mumsie a present
Danny Boy is the photographer...that's why he's missing.....
Mumsie would like to wish all MUMSIES A VERY HAPPY AND A FABULOUS DAY AND GOOOOOOD HEALTH TOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!
Actually the best gift our children can give us is LOVE AND PRAYERS!!!
