ReplyDeleteTHis is awesome. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteWonderful grouping.. and lovely to see Mother Earth in there. I hope you had a lovely Mother's Day.
ReplyDeletegreat pictures. especially the last. It's what I was thinking yesterday as I planted an azalea.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great way to honor mothers everywhere. Migrant Mother by Dorthea Lange is one of my all time favorite photos.
ReplyDeleteHey y'all. This was a fun little mother's day project. How many different mothers could I think of? I know I forgot quite a few. (mother ship? mother lode?)
ReplyDeleteHilary, thanks. I had a very nice mother's day, and managed to speak to all 3 kids on the phone, plus my own mother (who is about to turn 91)
JarieLyn: Dorothea Lange's photo is my favorite too. So powerful, and an iconic image from US history.
This makes my womb feel so empty.
