My wife's request for Mothering Sunday was to get the Firefly back out on the water after her refit - we even had the new sails up! And I took the children for a sail, though it was pretty breezy for the younger one.

Still managed to get out and replace the control lines on my boat.    

Didn't make it onto the water though.

Wrong unlike all the other days Mothering sunday is a Victorian tradititon and is more to do with the mother church. So I hope you were all in church this morning
