You know those little photo booths that are usually in the mall or at fairs where you can sit in there and get your picture taken and it spits out a little strip of photos? Well my mom and I many, many years ago were shopping and got our picture taken. To this day it is one of my favorites (yes, even with my big eyed glasses and the children’s scribbles!) I think it’s the only photo I have of us together. Then again, who knows what is packed away in boxes!? Anywho, it is the only one I had out. It was in a cute little frame, which got broken, but I digress….meet the younger version of me and my mom in a trip down memory lane….in honor of Mother’s Day this month. I just couldn’t figure out how to scan it until last week on our new printer!

P.S. This post was inspired by my little sister (she’s 27!). Earlier in May she posted on her Facebook wall challenging us all to change our profile picture in honor of Mother’s Day. I teased her saying that was real nice considering I was 1600 miles away from my/our mother. Then I realized how few photos I have of my Mom and I with just the two of us. Very sad. And yes, she is still living, but very far away. I miss her a lot and am blessed to call her my mother.
