my mom
I talked about my mother in my very first post, but haven't since. I think I've been worried that if I start, I'll never stop. My friends are very patient about me going on and on...they enjoy my mother too. My family doesn't mind...they all adore her as much as I do. My mother and I share everything from the daily minutia to the big stuff. She even calls to tell me what typos I have to edit from my blog..."not another exclamation point, Maya"..."can't help it Mom...I'm enthusiastic!" You see, she is my best friend, my mentor and my confidante. She's the most beautiful, creative woman I know...my brother and sister would definitely agree. I'm quite nostalgic, so I thought I'd surprise her with some lovely "Vintage Mom"...but she's even more lovely today.

Your mom is gorgeous! (I can't leave off the exclamation points either, even though I know I should.) She's given you such amazing creative gifts that you're passing on to your children. Enjoy your Mother's Day!!
ReplyDeleteJust stumbled across your great blog. I love old photos and these are great! My sister and i love to tease our mom about our clothes and hair in our family photos. We always look like such unkept waifs!
ReplyDeleteThanks Doodlebug, Happy Mother's Day to you too!
ReplyDeleteGlad you found me, jamie noel...you gotta love the old family photos. I'm the keeper of most of them for my family. It's an honor... and really fun being able to whip out crazy snippets from the past.
