mother's day!

tomorrow is the one day of the year that it is cool to be seen with your mum... haha nah my mum is very cool- she's the one who got me into watching cricket and rugby can u believe it?

i always wonder what sort of things people get for their mums on mother's day. most of the time it's flowers or chocolate... but who's to say what's the perfect gift that really says "I love you"?

me and my sister are going to wake up extra early tomorrow morning and make pancakes for breakfast as our gift. hopefully we can do it quietly so that she comes to the kitchen tomorrow and gets a nice surprise!

in case ur suddenly panicking because u forgot it was mother's day (although there have been ads everywhere for the past 3 weeks) i shall graciously allow you to borrow my idea!
