Sadness and Joy

Hi to you all, i haven't been blogging for a while as my lovely mum has been very poorly she was in hospital then transferred to our local hospice where she sadly passed away last thurs. Mum had lung cancer she fought it without chemo for a long time i will miss her so much. My eldest daughter Natalie has told us she is pregnant! i went with her and Andrew for the first scan i am so pleased!. Mum knew about Natalie and she was so sad that she wont be here (,I am sure she will from heaven). Hugs to Mandy "A sprinkling of glitter" as she lost her dear mum on the same day!. I will get around to visit your blogs  soon!.
