Letter from mum

[Ally]

Mum and dad have just spent two weeks in the Lake District.

They‘ve been going for the last fortnight in May for years and love it.

It‘s been a standing joke between mum and I in that she sends lots of silly postcards to me and this year was no different.

I‘ve just this minute been delivered of a card from mum that is just us to a T.
(I‘ll post a pic of it later.)

Anyway...inside the card was a long letter that she‘d written last Tuesday.
It was a delight to read as I could ‘hear‘ mum saying the words iyswim.

I‘ve had a little cry as I‘m so touched mum sat and wrote to me...

I‘m sorry if this post makes naff reading...I just wanted to tell you. xx

I know what you mean Ally

Not naff at all Ally. My dad used to be a brilliant letter writer. His wit and wisdom would shine out of his letters and I have so many of them from when he would write to me in Switzerland. I read the odd one now and again and he comes alive through his letters

That's just lovely Ally - I don't think I ever had a letter from either of my parents...................lots of cards, but not letters. I have had some from my Aunty Rose though and my late grandmother xx

Not naff at all.... Same as Kaz I've never had a letter from my parents, but whenever I get an email from my mom (which admittedly also isn't often as we tend to call each other) I - same as you - can hear my mom's voice saying the words when I read the message...

That is lovely Ally and Loz. My mum wrote me a letter just before she died, which I will always keep
