The high tea spread on Mother’s Day at Carousel was delicious. It was good having reason to dress-up and to forget the kitchen. And at night was another get-together organised by my in-laws.
It has been a great outing but on the way home I received news of the demise of an ex-colleague. She succumbed to cancer after battling for almost a year leaving behind 5 young kids. She had always been a cheerful person and was still her bubbly self even though she was too weak to walk on my last visit. Leaving us when many were celebrating Mother’s day, I pray to God to give his kids strength to carry on without their mom. Although I am almost half a century old, my own mom never fail to check whether I have eaten whenever I visit her.
I did this cross-stitch sampler in 1991. Contact me for the pattern if you are interested.
To me Home is Sweet with Mom around.
