Yes he came home on his 80th birthday which was Tuesday and I made this cake for him - thanks for asking and all your kind thoughts and prayers for him and me.

Today is not mothers day in Britain our Mothering Sunday is the 4th Sunday in Lent so moves each year. Click here for history on Mothers Day in Britain

With it being Mothers Day in the US though it was very fitting that I had one of my own mother's favourite desserts for afters today.

I’m so glad your dad is home. Yummy to the cake and desert. I haven’t had dinner yet. Makes me hungry. :)

Eleanor, belated birthday wishes to your Dad!! I am so happy to learn that he is home. What a wonderful birthday present for him.

Hope you are well.

My Mom turns 85 on the 20th. A few weeks ago, I completed the White House form to have a birthday card from President and Mrs Bush sent to my Mom. I didn’t tell her. She received the card yesterday and was SO SURPRISED! She kept saying......how do they know about my birthday. I told her ‘a little bird’ told them. LOL. She’s planning to frame the card. It was really nice.
