Thank you, Mum! When some of our customers wrote in, telling us how amazing their mums were, I wanted to share their messages for Mother’s Day here. And it’s the perfect opportunity to say a big thank-you of my own… Asda editor, Hannah McDermott
Dear Mum…
Hannah & her mum, Gwyneth
Trish & Bernie
Thank you for your wonderful sense of fun and for being one of my best friends. You were the mum the other kids were really jealous of because you always let us have fun and trusted us to make our own decisions. You’ve always been so resourceful, too. As a nursery nurse, you could whip up your own home-made Play-Doh. And I remember you letting us fll the dinghy ‘You were the mum with bubbles and sitting the other kids were in it on the lawn, eating jealous of because biscuits. You’ve always you always let us said how proud you are of enjoy ourselves’ me and now I wanted to say how proud I am of your strength and determination, even though life has thrown a lot your way.

Dear Mum…
It’s thanks to your hard work that our family is so tightly knit and we all still share an unbreakable bond. I remember so much laughter in our home with Dad, Kevin and Daragh. And even though I’m no longer with you in Ireland, when we’re together it’s exactly the same. You’ve always done your best for us, and you kept everything together when Dad lost his job in the 1990s recession. You’re not only the best mum, but the best grandmother, too.
