My Mum's very important Birthday blog.........

I love this photo of me and my lovely Mum, it was a selfie taken in the hotel room (bloody expensive hotel) in Bath the night before I ran the Two Tunnels Marathon.
This blog won't follow my usual pattern of writing and will be extremely random, the only person who will really get it will be my Mum, so this one is for you Jacqueline Wright, Happy Birthday for Thursday 14th July 2016 and your epic 70th Birthday! (you behave like you are 20)

I wonder what other peoples list of a mother-daughter relationship looks like?
I am sure that I have missed loads and loads, after all, of 41 years of Mum's 70 I have been there! Poor woman!

The main word I wanted to come across I have not  yet typed, because I want it in BOLD, actually, there are two.
LOVE
SUPPORT

I have had nothing but constant love and support from my Mum my entire life. Whatever my decision, whether good or bad to her she has supported, she has backed every ridiculous idea, every stupid challenge, and more-so, every dickhead I have ever gone out with, she has made it clear but let me crack on.
She is the Mum of dreams, she is, the best person in the whole world and I love her so very very much, she must move to Devon! She needs to be closer to me so that we can continue this adventure.

I have had some teary moments, happy, of course, writing this, although I didn't want to tell about the black enamel paint/brand new carpet/runaway over Earslwood Lakes for a good hour occurrence. That would have made me properly cry. I do believe that the black stain is still on the floor under the newer carpet! 

Anyway, this one is for my Mum, the greatest woman that ever lived as far as I am concerned.
I love you Mummy and have an amazing Birthday on Thursday, can't wait to see you and celebrate!
