..and then, we planted a tree..

... to remember Mum.



The sun shone, we chatted, smiled and remembered whilst we spread "magic dust" (Mum's ashes) around the tree.   Tommy and Kezia released balloons that flew up to find Granny.  We sang happy birthday (its Mum's birthday tomorrow) and then with the trees leaves gently dancing in the Autumn breeze we left  - knowing that we can always come and stand by Mum's tree if we need too, and that the tree is in one of her most favourite and places - St Albans Church grounds.

Missing you Mum - but we are all doing fine, I think (in fact I know) you would be proud of all of us
