The Half Century

Many a night I've slept under quilts stitched by her. Many a meal I've eaten, cooked by her...

She likes vintage dresses, wine (red and white) a good book, cups of tea (incredibly strong and scalding hot). She moved across the world with a husband and three small children, to a country where she didn't know a single soul-had never even visited. She's funny and she's articulate and strong and generous.

Probably the best Mum I could have asked for really! And it's her 50th birthday on Saturday. SO tomorrow, Kyan and I are hopping on a plane to Auckland for the celebrations. Happy weekend to all, and Happy Birthday Mum. Love you xx
