Answers:
Thats chicken veggie soup, but thats okay...while the chicken is boiling, add some bay leaves (2) and perhaps some sage ( just to taste ) Salt and pepper
Remember to skim the scum from the top and remove the skin as well as the bones from the chicken.
I think a cup of celery is a bit much...check out this recipe, I leave out the apple

I would put the veggies in right at the beginning. Here is a recipe you can compare yours to: http://allrecipes.com//Recipe/homemade-c…
I'd add onion to carrots & celery.
When you take out the chicken allow the broth to cool and skim off the fat.
That is far too much chicken for a soup.
Segment the chicken and keep at least half for a meal, I would use only a quarter.
Return the chicken and veggies and bring to the boil, and reduce the heat to simmer.
Check for taste and add salt if required.
I would use what ever I had, carrots, peas, corn, onion, celery (sp).
You didn't say your age so check with your mother that you can use the chicken, that could be for a couple of meals during the week.
