mama and the grandmamas



Moms are great! Moms are good! Moms love you even when you are ungrateful, needy, full of attitude, just plain stupid, and/or annoyingly self-sufficient. Why? I don't know. Not being a mother, at times I can not comprehend the depth of a mama's patience. They're like glue, you know? Sticky. Holds us all together. For which I am incredibly grateful.

Happy Mother's Day to my beautiful mama and all you other mamas out there!

You two are so adorable! This is a lovely mother's day sentiment. I agree that not being a mother can make it difficult to truly comprehend the scope of amazing things they do!

I hope you have a wonderful day!
Hugs!

I'm loving all of the Mother's Day posts that are going around because on so many of them, I get to see photos of bloggers' moms. So many mom photos have insanely strong resemblances to those of the blogger. And you, Julie, you are your mom!!!

Shucks, Julie! Thanks for all the nice words.
The coats were made by your Gma Lamont -- pale blue featherweight corduroy with eyelet trim, pearl buttons, and little bonnets to match. She had so much fun sewing for you guys. I made the flowered dresses underneath -- they were your Easter outfits that year.
