I think most Mothers would say being a parent is the most rewarding job they’ve ever had. It is also one that we Mothers don’t get paid for. It’s 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and 365 days a year. Except maybe we have Mother’s Day off. We’ve got a single day a year that we can put our feet up and say it’s our turn to get spoilt. Well, that’s certainly the idea.
If you’re not wanting to stay home this Mother’s Day, here is a list of some places you can go on Sunday (12.05.19). Mokolodi has 3 separate events happening!

Mother’s Day Champagne & Yoga Brunch
