i celebrated my very first mother's day on sunday. we ate lunch at one of my favourite pubs, the fox and hounds near windsor great park. richard's sister sarah and her family and richard's mum joined us for the day, so we had three children at lunch under the age of two--madeline and her cousins gus and dexter. considering the fact that we were there for more than two hours, they were incredibly well behaved.
my life has changed a lot in the past twelve months. for quite a while i wondered if i would ever be a mother, and even during the stressful moments, i am really grateful to be one.
