Happy Birthday, Mama

Perhaps a graduation photo? Mama with an itinerant pony. (It belonged to the photographer, who went from house to house taking photos of the kids.) 1927.
Young Ruth, 1946

It's my Mama's birthday.
She would have been 91 today.
Imagine that.
I miss you, Ma.

I love old family pics and the whole geneology thing. The innocence on those pics is priceless. My grandma would have been 97 on 8/10 :)

Pictures are a great way to remember our loved ones.

When I was having trouble loading pictures on Blogger, Back of the Pack suggested I try using Mozilla Firefox. It worked. Now when I have trouble uploading, I switch from Internet Explorer to Firefox and I have less frustration.

I'm so sorry I missed this post *jeanne*. What a wonderful tribute, to a wonderful woman, who raised a wonderful woman.

BIG HUGS to you.
