I love my friends who are so generous with their love and time and thoughtfulness. I love that my husband and children want to have me as their wife and mummy, I love that my parents support me in all the crazy things I do with un-faulted attention. I love that I dont sweat the little things and take each day as it comes and accept people for their differences...... I hate my increasing waistline, I hate my wrinkles, I hate my housework and messy everything, I hate having to produce food everyday for hungry mouths, I hate frizzy hair days..... but you know what, the things I hate can all be fixed, (just need to have lipo, facelift and a maid), but to have the love of your friends and family is sooo much more precious than saggy things, so my hates just pale in comparision to my loves. I love my life, I couldnt be more happy with what I have.
My week started with lunch downtown with two special ladies who bought me lunch, and beautiful little trinkets and pamper vouchers.(girls just know what other girls like aye!!)
Then the next day my two kids started my birthday off with fascinators in their hair and feathers on sticks. They are so like their mother!!!! 
Tuesday was my actual birthday and I spent it on my own which sounds weird but after having partied during the weekend (mamma Mia yay!!!!), I actually enjoyed the peace and just "me" time. Went and saw Brideshead Revisted which was lovely. Ate lunch on the beach at the mount, shopped at Save Mart and picked kids up from school. Husband returned home early so we took kids to McD's for tea and then off to ICONZ. Met up with Mum, Dad, my sister and had tea and desert at Bravo. Lovely time.

On Thursday Katey Sparkles organised a lunch for me in her secret garden. What a treat, hats and bubbles, salads and cupcakes. What more could a girl want.
Meanwhile E6 has decided to enter yet another competition at school (as if Maungatapu Idol wasnt enough!!!) and has auditioned for "So you think you can dance"..... yep wouldnt you know it, she got through her audition and is into the semi-finals. You go girl, I love how she makes the most of every opportunity!!!

Happy birthday Margot!! I can't believe we are over 40 either! But I don't feel it! I remember as a kid thinking people over 40 were "sooo old"! But now I am here - it doesn't seem so old at all! I am glad you had a really nice week! Bring it on!!!
I am loving your camera girl... it takes gorgeous pics aye.
Love your loves and I get your hates... but I agree, your hates pale in comparison to the great things you have going on in your life, and you are right to cherish every single year you are still on this planet with so much love. xx
love all your photoshopping!
love the love and laughter we've shared so much of lately.
big birthday kisses X
You look younger than your age, sweetie! Wanna know why? That's because of your smile and personality. Always stay positive and surround yourself with beautiful and happy people, and you'll look forever young! May you have many more birthdays to come!!
