What a treat I had this afternoon. Mother's Day is on the second Sunday of May in Cyprus (where I am presently) and in South Africa and in the Netherlands.

A lone fisherman - caught a fish while we were having lunch

Eden and I - enjoying some Mom and daughter bonding time

My beautiful daughter, Eden, who organised this Mother's day treat for me

We started out the day listening to a sermon and I was moved as my late mother's favourite bible verse was quoted and I thought that was quite fitting for Mother's Day. For I know the plans I have for you, saith the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a future and a hope

So grateful that I am blessed with a loving family with whom I can spend so many special days. My son, Lee, is in the Netherlands so was not able to join us today - but earlier in the year I was able to celebrate the UK Mother's Day with him - and he took me to the cinema and spoilt me with lots of treats.

Driving into this area Liopetra was like visiting a brand new country. It was so different there. Eden had discovered it when she filmed some footage for Worth the Wait still to be released. Very special that now I can watch the music video and know that I have visited this beautiful place.

It was also so special that the lone fisherman caught a fish whilst we were having lunch and looked back to see that we acknowledged him and you could see he felt so proud.

Highly recommend this lovely restaurant - a hidden gem!! Situated right on the beach.
