Last Mother’s Day was pretty emotional, as I was just a few days out from my ‘big op’.

This one, was quite different. We celebrated a little early with High Tea at Keri Craig Emporium in Brisbane (for those of you who agree that I was born in the wrong era – here’s proof!), we had a lovely time.

The Sunday of Mother’s Day, we – along with thousands more around the country, joined in the Mother’s Day Classic walk/run, raising money for the NBCF.

While I walked alongside Paul, my Mum, my sister Kristi and friends Wayne and Susie, pounding the pavement beachside on the Gold Coast, my dear friend Summer and her sister Jayda did the walk in Sydney – in memory of their Mum lost to breast cancer 20 years ago.
