————————————————
No, I can't recall ever uttering those words. Mom was, well… mom, and a fabulous one at that. She took such amazing care of us…It's been nearly 8 years since we lost her to an insidious disease, well before her time.
  This was taken back when portraits were touched up by hand using Photoshop version N8 (N is for 'negative' 😉
High School Senior Portrait, 1949. 
  Happy Mother's Day to all the Moms out there. Remind them MORE than once a year that you appreciate and love them, while you still have the opportunity!

  I snapped this with my Android phone, then scrounged around to find a card in the camera bag…but by then, the best moments had passed.

I found another gem in the archives to share for this week's #blastfromthepast . This is about 1934. My mom (on the right, age 3) with her older sister holding new baby sister.
I'm so glad grandpa was a photo bug!
