Happy Mother's Day to my mother-in-law, and thank you for raising such a wonderful son and teaching him to be a great husband and father. Thanks for everything you do for all of us!

My mother-in-law, Diane, standing. Seated to her right, is another special mother in our family -- my husband's paternal grandmother, Kathryn, who celebrated her 95th birthday this February. His maternal grandmother died when he was still in college.
On Mother's Day, I always think of my grandmothers. Both have passed away now, but they were such an important part of my life. I was so fortunate to have both grandmothers for a good part of my life.
Below is my maternal grandmother (and grandfather) when I was about ten years old.
And this is my paternal grandmother, with my sister and I at Easter. Aren't our hair bands just the height of fashion? :)
Happy Mother's Day to my sister, whose sweet daughter just graduated with honors from college last weekend.
This is my sister and I at the beach when our children were very young. That's me on the left with the dark hair, and my sis is on the right.
I've been so blessed to be a mother. This was our first "child."
We practiced with Bonnie and then were so fortunate to have our son.
Happy Mother's Day to all my sister bloggers; I hope you had a wonderful day!
