Piggybacking off the advice to Oct 12 moms and how moms should strive to include themselves in photos, I just read this touching article. And it's so true that when you look back at your mom in your own childhood photos you are not judging her for whether she still has a post-baby flab or ponytail hair or donning a hideous sweatshirt, but you remember her being there for your moments. I'm getting all misty now....
Re: s/o Moms in photos
Thanks for posting, what a great article. Funny enough, my Aunt just sent me an old picture of my mom and I sitting together laughing. My mom looks so young and wonderful...that's all I see, her being my mommy (not to mention she was rocking a lavender Gloria Vanderbilt v-neck).
My Mom's first thought was, egads look at my nose.
I'm so thankful to have this picture.
