No 13 Spend a whole day with each of my children (19)

Why was this a challenge?  Having 3 adult children with busy lives and 1 living 2 hours away meant it was tricky to spend a whole day with just them.  Of course we all wanted to make sure we did the challenge and are now planning to do it every year - I recommend it!  So often I see my family but in groups, or at events; having a day to just be... we had the opportunity to remember what we like about each other and how much we love each other.

Spent the day with Sara at a spa - what a treat, healthy juices and lunch, lovely massage and facial, quick jog in the gym topped off by a swim, a stint in the steam room and ending with a relaxing spell in the jacuzzi! To say we talked for England was an understatement - but we soon put the world to rights and vowed to do it again in the not too distant future.


Spent the day with George that ended up with another challenge being ticked off my list!  He treated me to an open air concert at Blenheim Palace to see Ludovico Einaudi - magical!  The sunset we had to some of the most beautiful music in the world was a very emotional moment; yes I had a tear!!

Spent a few days with Chloe on other challenges but the day in question that was so meaningful was when we visited so many of the places I lived when I was younger for the front door challenge.  It was quite emotional for me to visit so many in one day and to talk about what I remembered with Chloe as she wanted to know more about my history; it was a nice moment between mother and daughter.
