Happy Mother's Day to the moms, grandmas, stepmoms, step-grans and pet moms! Here are a few of my favorites.
 |
One of my earliest photo shoots with Mom.  | | She'd throttle me if she knew I was posting this pic from her last Christmas! |
|
 |
| The first photo with my Grandma. She was 65 then. |
 |
Grandma at 70 -- she looks just the same. |
 |
| Grandma at 82 or so. She must have had a picture in her closet! |
 |
| The marvelous Miss Molly, ace daughter-in-law and mom! |
 |
I'm not their mom or their legal step mom, but they'll always be my boys!  | | Rick's Mom, Kitty. Somehow, she raised five boys on her own! |
|
 |
| Pet Mom with Jack! |
 |
| With the best cat ever, the Marmelade Gypsy |
 |
| Lizzie and her human Mom-Cat |
 |
| And the, there are these guys. Being a step-gran is a good thing! |
I know you must have many women in your world -- moms, wives, aunts, in-laws, daughters, pet moms or best friends. Wish them a Happy Mother's Day today! (And don't forget to include yourself!)
Happy Mother's Day!

Happy Mother’s Day! We all have to take care of ourselves as well as others, as well as being cared for by others, all of it. I love the photos. Your grandma looks amazing, by the way.
Beautiful Mother's Day tribute to all the special ladies in your life, Jeanie, and all your darling pets.
Oh so beautiful... You and Your Mom.
With love, Andreja
A picture is worth a thousand words
You are a wonderful human being. A total gem. God bless you.
Happy Mother’s Day to all who deserve it.
I was missing my mother yesterday, but I did call my sister and sister-in-law to wish them Happy Mother's Day.
I absolutely am drawn to those black and white photos. There's so much detail, so much simplicity, so many memories. I hope your Mother's Day weekend was awesome, friend!
A wonderful Mother’s Day post Jeanie. Thank you for sharing all these treasured photos.
I love all the flashback photos. You've had some amazing women in your lives! I had a nice Mother's Day yesterday. Phil went to his mom's and did a ton of yard work for her and brought Paul with so I just had Will to manage. We were outside quite a bit so that was nice! It's still a bit chilly but was nice and sunny.
A lovely post. I hope you had a nice day.

I enjoyed this post, Jeanie.
We had a great day Sunday. Joe is always careful to say 'step-daughter,' but when it comes to grandkids, they are grandkids. You must have been a wonderful influence in these young people's lives. I love your family.
A nice review of some significant moms in your life!
Loved this! So great to see the photos of all the moms in your life.
What a charming tribute to Mother's Day. Loved seeing photos of the moms in your life.
Another wonderful post. You know the history of your family and grandparents so well. Always nice to see the photos of them. And such lovely boys, great family! Happy Mother's Day to you!
It was a joy seeing all the moms in your life, Jeanie, who are inspiring women in your world. You look so pretty in that photo with Lizzie. And you know how much I loved the old grandma pics. ; ) What a delightful post you shared today.
A beautiful tribute to all the important women in your life.
Sorry I missed this post. It is a beautiful tribute to all moms. Thank you .
Comment from Jan Jackson: And to YOOOOOU, Sweet Jeanie!!
What a fabulous panoply of generations you display---all you girls and your fabulous families---those old black and whites are so familiar and I can see similarities to my own albums---your Grandma could have been my Mammaw's Fifth Sister---even to their choice of dresses and perms. They knew life differently than we, a harder, but gentler time with its pros and cons and still-to-comes that would have astonished and perhaps perplexed, perhaps made them blush.
They were LADIES---and they certainly instilled a lot of our own manners and outlooks. I hope you had a FABULOUS Mothers' Day!!
It is really nice to have so many beautiful women around you. It is a special comfort with having great women around.
Another happy post that made me smile!! All the happy faces. :) Your Gypsy looks so much like Max! Or I guess Max looks so much like your Gypsy!
I'm catching up on posts from when I was traveling. Love this post and enjoyed seeing all the mothers!
What a beautiful tribute to all the incredible women in your life, from your sweet mom and grandmother to the wonderful Miss Molly! Kitty raising five boys on her own sounds absolutely superhuman, and those photos of you with Jack and the Marmalade Gypsy are just precious. It's so lovely how you celebrated every kind of mothering, including being a proud step-gran to those handsome boys. Happy Mother's Day to you too, and I hope you had a truly wonderful weekend celebrating!
