Palm Beach

My Boerewors recently surprised me with an early birthday present - an air ticket and car hire to go and see my mum and dad - who live over 700km away on the Natal South Coast.  We couldn't afford for all of us to go down so I arranged that my big sister go with me and we make it a Morris family reunion.
 
It was fabulous. 

A Daft Scots Lass and her dad

It was bitter-sweet to see how my folks are getting really frail and old and don't want our help!   

We had a lovely 6 days together talking about old times and hanging out.  It was amazing to give my mum and dad a cuddle and share the love.  Everyone who has parents close by, NEVER complain about them.  You are truly blessed to have them in your daily lives and close to you. Cherish that.

Taking #selfies with Mum (it was an entirely new concept to my Mum)

My mum and dad with their wedding day picture, showing how much height my mum has lost with her debilitating osteoporosis.  As you can see from the picture, My mum and dad used to be almost the same height.
