Over the last few years of COVID restrictions and missing our loved ones, I have found missing my parents the hardest part.
Although COVID took 2020 from us. 2021 saw my parents relocated to the seaside and for the first time in my adult life, my Mum was more than 30 minutes away.
I have been so very lucky, luckier than most to have had such a fantastic relationship and time with my Mum and have her on hand for the last 40 odd years.
The first few months after my parents left I found the hardest. Although we hadn’t lived in each other’s pockets living in the same village I always knew she was only a few streets away if we needed her so I struggled for a while with knowing a 2-3 hour car journey was going to be the only way I saw her.
By the last few months of 2021, we had settled into my frequent phone calls and school holidays visits in which I get to drop my kids with them while I come home and work. My boys got their grandparents and a seaside trip and I got to work knowing they were getting quality time together.
This year we have yet to get to the coast and see them but the weather is much improving and I am raring to go and see them!
Mother’s Day is soon going to be upon us and I am organised and ready to go. I have my Mother’s Day gifts sorted and they will be delivered soon to my wonderful Mum so she knows that even though I won’t be there in person I will be with her on the phone!
So having been organised already I have put a list together of my top Mother’s Day Gifts for some handy tips on what you can get too!
