My silver hair amongst the golden pomegranates
I guess a good place to start with this blog would be to highlight my 70th birthday. This was really a special time in my life and the only thing missing was that my beautiful daughter was in South Africa at the time.
She, however, arranged a gift that I would have a photoshoot to celebrate and photographs which would be a wonderful reminder and memory for all of them.
Anyone who reads my blogs will know that I am a very proud mother of three. My oldest son Jack, 44 is married to a gorgeous lady, Les who is like another daughter to me.
I treasure this, as I am aware that so many families do not get on with the in laws or out laws as they are so often referred to - so I am truly blessed to have Lesley in my family.

I wish I could have been thinner on this wonderful occasion in October 2019 when they got married.
However, I decided to let my hair grow out to its natural grey and enjoy the Silver Threads among the Gold
Back to my 70th birthday celebration and the wonderful photoshoot.
We had a lovely day and part of my gift was to have my face professionally made up by the best makeup artist I have ever met - (in the world)
Here are some photographs from the day:

Maria took this photograph of me
She is really the best make up artist I have ever come across.

So, what a lovely day with the best artists - and my sons taking such wonderful photographs of me.
These, I am happy to have on the blockchain.
This was one of my favourites
So I am thoroughly blessed to have my children close by. Eden arrived back in Cyprus on 1 Feb of this year. I hadn't seen her for a year. Don't ever want such a long separation again. I'm hoping that she will be here for my next birthday. So hard to believe how time has flown.
