My boy got engaged this weekend, it was a surprise (although he and his lady have been together since university)and I have to say I felt a bit churned up, which is weird because when he went away to uni, and moved out of home I was ok.

Well done you on ...Argh, the light, it dazzles me!!<br />Well done you on a memorable 11th birthday. I too remember the after school dash to the corner shop for last minute essential ingredients. <br />My baby would be 21 now and I wonder if he would have had a games console too - they never grow up!Bee Beeautifulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06952302920939073720noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4776380217462070463.post-51823884362441041832011-08-06T11:06:34.671+01:002011-08-06T11:06:34.671+01:00Make the most of the hand holding it wont last muc...Make the most of the hand holding it wont last much longer:(<br />The cake looks LOVELYXNorthern Snippethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07207173438875166390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4776380217462070463.post-50242447307633842972011-08-06T09:14:12.554+01:002011-08-06T09:14:12.554+01:00Alex - that gives me hope that he'll maybe wan...Alex - that gives me hope that he'll maybe want to hold my hand. Sometimes ;-D<br /><br />Mary Mur - well, thanks for the nice comments. Not sure what to advise about Greece. Have been hideously lost in Athens but couldn't advise on any kind of shopping experience ;-)<br /><br />Blighty - Sonshine is amazed that I can sing along with almost all the music on the radio. So far he has not twigged that it's Radio 2. Was I the only person in the country shouting :"oh my GOD!!! DAVID ESSEX IS ON EASTENDERS????' I remember the tousled hair, the cheekily knotted neckerchief......*sigh*<br /><br />YaH - It's tricky enough when they're NOT ADHD. (((hug))) I'm screwing him up in some form or another. As parents, it's what we're ALL destined to do, isn't it?<br /><br />Wildernesschic - your boys look lovely. And you ARE skinny.<br /><br />Mrs E - it's quite frustrating because I think she's simply unfit - so unused to having to walk. Of course, she's in her 70s now - a fact that she reminds me of EVERY BLOODY DAY. But still, she should could easily go for a little walk every day to get back up to speed.<br /><br />Mrs M&TT - The cake was very tasty. It was a recipe that I got from The Food Channel - Paul Hollingwood I think is the chef. Easy peasy and tasted lovely! My halo has slipped a fair bit since his birthday, let me tell you!<br /><br />Bonnie - cake is now gone! Froze a bit for Tartarus when he comes back in a few weeks. But the ravening hordes of friends have inhaled it all bar the crumbs!<br /><br />Viv - ta :-D Where's your 90 day plan, btw?Alison Crosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06565962059926865121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4776380217462070463.post-45330223343417552802011-08-05T23:09:07.739+01:002011-08-05T23:09:07.739+01:00Oh bless him.

A splendid day, a fabulous cake and Sonshine got the prezzie he really wanted. <br /><br />My little ray of sunshine will be 28 this year and sometimes I do feel an out of touch relic but he still gives me a hug and never forgets to send flowers on my birthday. I think all those cakes I made him, just may have paid off.
