Mother's Day

Yes, it was Mother's Day yesterday (Sunday 9th May) here in Australia.

I came across this "Stages of Motherhood" (author unknown) and thought I'd share it. Maybe you've seen it before, with some different words here and there, but we can all relate to it, I'm sure.

4 years of age - my Mummy can do anything
8 years of age - my Mum knows a lot
12 years of age - my Mother doesn't really know quite everything
14 years of age - Naturally, Mother doesn't know that, either
16 years of age - Mother? She's hopelessly old-fashioned
18 years of age - That old woman? She's way out of date
25 years of age - Well, she might know a bit about it
35 years of age - Before we decide, let's get Mum's opinion
45 years of age - Wonder what Mum would have thought about it
65 years of age - Wish I could talk it over with Mum.
