I've just popped up to my parents house on my lunch hour. They weren't in because mum is at the hospital with my nan and dad is at work. it's a good job too because it was clear by the beautiful boquet of flowers and the heartfelt messages in cards around the house that i'd forgotten their Wedding Anniversary..again!
I made a promise to myself last year that i'd do something special for them this time (on account of me being a grown-up!) so how bad do i feel now? gutted. They won't mind because they're used to it now, but I do.
As the years pass by i realise how hard life is, how hard it's been for them over the years. Bringing up three children, making sure they had a great childhood without losing sight of themselves. Marvellous.
Happy Anniversary, love you both to bits x
Quick, nip out and get a card before they come back!
