#ValJennings always thought her son Dale was a star, and the reception he received at the 1989 Logie Awards only confirmed her feelings.

What’s a proud mother to do aside from gush about her shining star to his industry friends!? 😉❤️🌟

Happy Mother’s Day to all who are celebrating today!

I’m especially thinking of our beautiful #NoeleneKim, #SoonHeeKim, #ValJennings, #EvelynWalters and #CarlaCarroll today, as well as my own mum too! 💖

In an adorable life imitating art moment, when I first approached the doorway to Dale’s office I nervously clutched my handbag near, just like #ValJennings did when #HelenNorville showed her Geoff’s office!

I was just like Val! 💖

I must admit I got a little tear in my eye seeing #ValJennings. She was so very good in keeping on script when Donna Gillies asked her those probing questions about Dale’s childhood; well, almost! 😉

She was just the proudest Mumma alive! 💖
