This is a Friday photo feature that anyone with a blog can join. It opens the door to us sharing our lives through these photos and gives us all a new way to discover each other, and maybe form new friendships. Your photo should show something at home that you're thinking about TODAY. If you're in another country you should join in when you read this, even if it's still Thursday.
To take part, all you have to do is post a photo, write a short caption explaining it, and link it back to here. Please write a new post, don't link to an older one. When your photo is published, come back and add a comment below, with a link to your blog photo. Please visit all the blogs that appeal to you and leave a comment. If you are wondering why no one has commented on your On my mind post, maybe it's because you haven't commented on anyone else's. Slow down, take the time to cruise around and enjoy your cyber visits.
It's Mother's Day this Sunday so I'm thinking about my mum - Jean St Claire McGrath. Jean was born in 1919 and died in 1993. In this photo she is only 19 years old; isn't she beautiful! I'm also thinking about my girls - Sunny and Sarndra. This is Sunny's first year as a mother and Sarndra will become a mother in July. Happy mother's day, Sunny and Sarndra! We'll see you next week. And happy mother's day to all the mothers who read here. I hope you enjoy yourself on Sunday and spend the day with your family. You deserve the day off so let the kids spoil you.
Lovely photo, Rhonda Jean!
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful Mother's Day, yourself!

What a lovely picture of your Mother. I have a weird relationship with my Mother as she and I are more friends than Mother and daughter as my Grandma raised me and she was more of my Mom. Hard to explain. Here is whats on my mind... http://lifeforus.blogspot.com/2011/05/this-that-and-other-on-my-mind.html

On my mind today is my English grandmother and the skills of preserving our autumn harvest that she passed onto my father and myself. Her influence means that i cannot pass a neglected tree ladened with fruit without gathering a bagful and turning it into jam or jelly. I use her method always, with varying degrees of success, but the results always taste great.

Happy Mothers' Day Rhonda Jean! I guess as there is no such thing in Australia, you could also celebrate your first Grandmothers' Day. What fun!

Happy Mothers' day, to all the moms!
ReplyDeleteI lost my mother to suicide in 1969; she was 46 and I 15. Each year I miss her more. I am the mother of a 32 year old daughter and 30 year old son. They make the bittersweet less bitter and more sweet. I just wish they could have known her, and she, them. Sorry to be maudlin. Please, ladies, treasure every day!!

Happy Mothers Day to you Rhonda.
ReplyDeleteI'm thinking of Japanese dishes.

ReplyDeletetalesfromagarden, yes, I'm very proud of my Irish heritage. My Irish ancestors came here in the 1850s from County Kerry, Cork and Limerick. My son, Kerry, was named for Ireland. My sister and cousin are visiting Ireland in August.
