Mothers Day

Today I have woken up in a bad mood. Those who know me well should know that today should have been my first mothers day (via adoption) but things have gone a little wrong and proceedings have been delayed. Its only by a couple of months but I was looking forward to this day with my little carrot. I have been very patient and understanding about the reasons but today I just feel cross.

We are going out with our parents and grandparents for a carvery Sunday lunch. I feel like loading my plate with a dozen roast potatoes, followed by a pudding and accompanied by copious amounts of wine.

I know if I did this I would be eating purely because of my emotions so today I have to be strong and really think about how the food will make me feel afterwards.
