My beautiful mom!
Each time I look in the mirror, your eyes smile back at me.
Each time I sew, your hands guide me along.
Each time I fall, your arms lift me up.
Each time I pray, your voice whispers in my ear.
Each time I laugh, your joy surrounds me.


I am one of the fortunate ones.
My mom gave me the biggest gifts a Mother could give. I was safe, warm, protected, cared for, loved, enjoyed and part of an amazing family.
Here’s she is at sixteen. I wish I had her dress!

My mom came from a long line of wonderful women.
Here’s my Grandmother!

And my Great Grandmother!

And here’s my beautiful daughter, Katie. Her grandmothers would be so proud of the wonderful woman, wife, mom and daughter she is. I know I am!!!!

Happy Mother’s Day to all these beautiful women.
I’m proud to say I’m part of this line of amazing women!
Love,
Beth

You are so very welcome Debra! Thank YOU for your nice comment!
Thank you for sharing your lineage of beautiful women. They’re all so beauties, and I can see the resemblances throughout. By the way, I can’t get over your grandmother’s “cold shoulder” dress – gorgeous!
I thought it was great, too. She was always such a fashionable dresser. Even in her 80’s she was always dressed up. I think I only saw her in jeans once, and that was in a picture of her riding a camel in Egypt. 🙂
What a beautiful tribute! You look so much like your beautiful mother! I, too, was blessed to be raised in a home with a loving mother (and father) who have always supported me and loved me unconditionally. It truly is a blessing and something I appreciate every day! Happy Mother’s Day!
Oh, I take that as a huge compliment. Thank you Susan!!! As a teacher, I know first hand that those of us raised in a loving home are indeed the fortunate ones. 🙂 I hope you had a wonderful Mother’s Day as well.
Beautiful women and beautiful clothes, too!!
Thank you so much Tamara!
Your mother and grandmothers are as beautiful as you are. Am sure you do them proud!
I so enjoy you blogs and posts. Keep up the good work. And Happy belated Mother’s Day.
