Remembering Mom

In honor of Mother's Day
I am forgoing the Skinny Sunday post until next week.

This is the first Mother's Day without my sweet Mom.
I am sad but I know she is always with me...
and I smile knowing she is dancing with the angels...
celebrating this day with her dear Mom  again.

Sadly, I don't have a picture of my maternal grandmother...
but above is my Mom (r) with my Dad's mother...my "Babcia".
Daddy was 25 when he lost his father...
my grandmother remarried...this is her wedding picture.
I have no idea the 'year'...but I'm guessing it's somewhere
between 1945-1948...mom would have been in her late twenties.

She was Always a Beauty!

Mom and me...my jr. high graduation 1969.
We were the 'platform' girls!

Enter the '70s!
Two stylin' chicks!

From the time I was 5yrs old...
my parents made the trek from NH to FL for their yearly vacation...
sometimes twice a year!
In 1983 they invited the Spouse and I to join them....
little did we know two years later...
Bob and I would make Florida our home.

Mom was blessed with almost 94 years on this earth.
Thank you for sharing a few of them with me.

Happy Mothers Day!

  1. Beautiful post...thanks for sharing your lovely story and photos. My mom passed in February, so this too is my first mother's day without my mom. Honestly, I don't really think it has fully sunk in yet. I love that you share so much of her and of your feelings with us...you are an inspiration in my thoughts. Thank you and Happy Mother's Day to you!

I just love to hear from you and I truly do read every comment. Sometimes life gets a wee bit crazy and I'm not always able to reply to them all...but I'll keep trying! If you are Anonymous or a no-reply blogger, leave your email with your comment, otherwise there's no way I can reply to you - and maybe you're okay with that - but if there's a give-away and you win...you'll never know!
