Such A Special Day


Today is a very special day. I've had time to reflect on my family, in particular my children, even more so my daughter Jenna. I am so proud of her and all that she has accomplished in the last, almost 5 years without her mum there to guide her and help her along.
It's been a week full of tears for me, as I wish with all my heart that on this particular day I could be with her. Today my beautiful daughter married the love of her life, Max.
I love you sweetie, and pray your marriage is filled with love laughter and joy.
Love
Mum
