My momma (and daddy) from last fall - Rockin her fave attire, Detroit Tigers gear


And me and my big sister, mother of 4 girls, at my wedding almost 3 years ago!

ETA:  I screwed up my own post and didn't post a pic of me and mom, but her and my dad instead - ahhh well!  I just like that pic of them!

Here's a picture of my mom a few months before she got pregnant with me.



And here is one of me, my mom, and my Grama a little over a year ago. We're little trouble making triplets. I really don't know what I would do without these two wonderful women.

Your mom looks so young @pcrunk! Good for her

My mom and I at my wedding:
Mom and I doing two of the things we love most, drinking beer and rooting for the Red Sox:
Throwing it way back because this little family photo is just so sweet. I believe it was from an Easter Sunday in the early 90s:

Me and my mom at a horse awards banquet about five years ago. Love this pic of us!

[maddib]

This is me and my mom. One of the only pictures that I had on fb. She passed away when I was fifteen. I think I was fourteen in this picture.




And this is my grandmother and I when I was about fourteen or fifteen also. She passed away when I was pregnant with my daughter in 06.

I was young in both pics and had no sense of fashion whatsoever!!

Edit to add that yes my grandma and I are playing with each other's hair! Lol she always loved to play with my hair so I decided that day that I would twirl her hair around too! That was the longest her hair ever got and the only time in ten years she had hair. She battled leukemia and lymphoma for 21 years so was always going through chemo treatments. It was actually am experimental chemo treatment that ended her life.

@hazeldublin I am sorry you lost both your mom and nan. I lost both mine as well.

maddib I was just about to write the same to you. It sucks not having them around, I've no sisters either so I really miss the female companionship I had with my mom. It's hard they don't get to see your babies either. Big hugs from me to you maddib!

Same to you!! And yes it is hard and sad that my babies never got to meet my mom. DS was three when my grandma died and kind of remembers her but really only because I talk about her and he has tons of pictures of them together. My grandfather took millions of pictures all the time and I am so grateful to that. I have no sisters either so it's hard not having that female relationship anymore. My dad is a decent substitute though. Lol we talk everyday just like I did with my grandma and we talk about everything! Lol.

Hugs to you @hazeldublin and maddib and everyone who has lost a mom

Here's my mom and I getting ready for my wedding almost 4 years ago

And in the spirit of the board, all the way back to last weekend with my sister and mom and the big Ol bump!

maddib, my dads great too. And he's so good with my son so I feel blessed to have him. I'm team green and even though it doesn't matter what sex this baby is a little part of me wants a girl so I can try to recreate a relationship similar to the one I had with my mom. But I'd also love another boy so my son has a brother do close in age, so it really doesn't matter.

That's great that you have a good relationship with your dad too! It helps. And I can definitely understand wanting a daughter to have that bond with. This LO will be my second daughter so I am very thankful that I will get to have that.

Haha, at least we know we're related! All of our DHs say its a little creepy sometimes.

The last picture of me and my Mommy(my adopted mom) she passed away soon after. I was 19.

And this is the happiest picture ever. My Mommy, the happiest woman ever!

Missing her so much right now. :-(

That's my momma and I through the years.

This is Mother's Day last year. Super fake smile, I was sad because I had just had a miscarriage.

[mrsmonogrammed]

My mom and I getting ready before my wedding last June:) we've had our ups and downs but lately as we've both gotten older I've come to appreciate her more and more:)

[dogmama22]

This is a little collage I put together for Mother's Day last year or maybe the year before. Forgive the cheesiness, but this is me and my mama.

[theBeeMama]

This isn't much of a flashback... Because it's from this morning. But I love my redheaded mama!
