On Saturday I had the joy of seeing one of my many other "Mums", Mary Lewis. Mary is the mother of my good friend Phili, (whose Blog you can check out on the right of the page) and therefore, by default also became another "Mum" to me as during my high school years in Adelaide it was often the case that if I wasn't at home, I was at Phili's and that often meant enjoying Mary's company as well.
I ran into Mary, quite to my surprise (and her's) on Saturday at a "Ridley Women" (as in the Bible College) Mentoring Day, after not having seen her for quite a number of years. At morning tea I tapped her on the shoulder and (after she figured out it was me - it can be hard with a married name!) gave each other a warm mother/daughterly embrace! What a joy it was to see this amazing woman of God again and to see the way in which God brought us together at that exact moment when I needed a motherly embrace from someone who has seen me grow up all through my adolecence (and it's been almost 12 months from my own Mum). I was taken aback by the strong affection and connection I felt with Mary after such a long time of separation, for, as I said at the beginning of my post, it hasn't been until the last couple of days since seeing her that I have reflected as an adult on the impact she had on my life. So thanks Mary, for being one of my special "Mums" (and thanks Phili - for sharing her with me while she's in Melbourne!)
And because I knew Mum would love a photo:

Tears from your Mummy too!! I was ready your blog to Dad (just home after Church) and had to stop as I began to cry! Lovely post darling and what a blessing for you to catch up with one of your other "Mum's". You might get to see a little of her on a Wednesday. That would be beautiful for you. And thanks for the photo. It's gorgeous.
Love precious Glenda, Your Mum xxxx

Glad I could share some of my Mum with you! I had a chat on the phone with her on Sunday and she had told me about your lovely reunion...so nice to hear it was a blessing from your side too :) She tells me you guys are going to come round for dinner...I jokingly said perhaps we could come over at the same time!!! Love you gorgeous xxx
You look like a couple of guys just fucked you. You can easily take two cocks in your huge mouth.
