Me, Long Ago
Monday, February 1, 2010
One Christmas my mother's gift to my father was a photo album. Thick wood cover. Black interior pages. My mother's handwriting, in white, beneath each picture. This is something we'll treasure and, I hope, add to, she wrote, for it will become more precious as time goes by.
Beneath this photograph, she wrote: Here we are: Bethie at 5 months. Jeffie at 2 1/2 years.

I can only imagine how precious this has become. Beautiful photo, Beth.
I love your mother's inscription! Thanks for sharing a glimpse into your past.
What a wonderful gift idea! Thanks for sharing this picture.
Oh, how sweet ... such a beautiful photo.
That is precious!
Photographs have a magical quality about them. I've gathered so many from my aunt's home this past summer, and I delight in looking at them.
Your mother was very wise :)
I absolutely love to look at old family photos. And your mother was right -- they do get more precious.
Beautiful photograph, beautiful words, beautiful mother....beautiful you!
I love how both your mother and father are looking down...at their beautiful children.
