Mum's the word

It's Mother's Day and three experienced mums from Arvida Ashwood Park share some wise words with Marlborough App readers.

Elaine Willis, Val Hale and Olive Dorsey all agree telling your children you love them is a top priority.

The trio are looking forward to celebrating the special day with an afternoon tea.

Village Manager, Lucy Moore says some of the mums at the Blenheim retirement village have decades of experience and are happy to pass on their wisdom.

“We find that residents are always happy to share their wisdom and knowledge with others.

“Some of the mums here have decades of parenting experience and advice. We’ll be celebrating Mother’s Day in our Living Well Community with a special afternoon tea with sweet treats and a visit from a pottery group.”

What other advice do mums out there have? Is there something you wish you'd known sooner?

Whatever you're doing on Mother's Day have a wonderful time.
