My Mum is a legend!

She really is!
Whenever I am sick she looks after me! Even though I have been married for almost 8 years, she still comes and looks after me!!
I remember when I was pregnant with Chestnut Cheeks my blood pressure was slightly elevated towards the end of my pregnancy & my doctor ordered bed rest for a couple of days. It was a stinking hot summer that year. Fourty plus degrees. We didn't have air conditioning at that stage either, so it was ordinary!
My wonderful mum came and cleaned my house from top to toe in the heat until it sparkled! What a legend.
After our recent holiday down south as you know I was quite ill, Mum came and did some boring house work for me again (thankfully not in 40 degree heat this time).
Well this Ross River Fever together with morning sickness has me knocked for a 6. Extreme fatigue is aweful. I can barely even shower without the need for a sleep afterwards.
So, once again my mum came to the rescue this morning. My floors & bathroom were getting horrid! So disgusting, I was embarrased to let her clean them they were so bad. But she did, and she did a better job than I normally do, even when I am well!

I love my mum.....
