Mothers Day layouts

This week's theme at Shop and Crop is Mothers Day. Here are my layouts for the gallery. The girls have done (as usual) some stunning work. This week the entire eight members of the DT have uploaded. So much inspiration! Go and check it out.

Remember when...
Journaling: This little cutie is my mum. Look at those little chubby cheeks! That blonde hair. She is so precious, "helping" with the gardening.

When I found this photo recently, I was struck by the similarity of Jamie and my Mum at this age. Wow!


Motherhood
Journaling: This thing called motherhood caught me by surprise... In my twenties I said why sould I waste an outstanding tertiary education and a promising career by having a baby. In my thirties a doctor told me that I might never conceive. My reaction shocked me. I realised that I wanted to be a mum. I wasn't until I was forty that I finally became a mother and the intensity of my feelings for this little guy just blow me away.

I hope all you mums out there have a lovely day on Sunday and get to relax and take it easy.

Wishing you a very Happy Mothers Day as well Kathie. I hope the day will be full of fun and suprises.

Lovely layouts here once again. The brown ribbon on that first one looks stunning, a great choice of embellishment and the flowers on the second one are adorable. Your very talented, thanks for sharing with us.
