It Was a Lovely Mother's Day

After church a friend took our picture in the Rose Garden

(l to r) the Sweet One, the Grown One, the Glorious One (lol me), baby Boy and the Chosen One. I loved worshipping surrounded by them.

Me surrounded by my sweet babies, well, I have to share the Sweet One with her Mama,

thanks for sharing Cheryl :)

My sister Debra and her crew. My niece posing beautifully, Baby Brother thinking "I'm done", Niece in law trying to get out of picture while the Fighter Nephew holds her in place :)

Mama with the Grands, we got a more serious shot but I like this one

(it's not always mine messing up the pics though)

Me and My Boys. The Chosen One and I made some beautiful babies

and they have become wonderful young men.

Mama and Her Girls. I am shorter than Baby Sister on the left but the ground was slanted. Oldest Sister beside me wants to look taller so is standing on the balls of her feet. The Most Special Sister is always front and center because she is only 4'9". She doesn't enjoy having to deal with all our picture taking.

Wow, everyone has eyes open and is looking at the camera!!!

The Sweet One is missing because she had to go to work which disappointed my Mama. I'm impressed we're all awake, we had just had a cookout and homemade ice cream.

 

Daddy and the GrandBoys. We had moved from the slanted ground so I am not sure how the Grown One got to be taller than his 3 and 4" inch taller cousins. He is standing pretty straight and they are more relaxed, maybe that's it.

Mama, Daddy and their Little girls, doesn't Daddy looked thrilled? lol

hmmmmm he seems much happier with these girls!

The Most Special Sister praising God for it being the last shot!

Did you get to spend time with family? Do you make sure to have photo sessions when everyone is together? Although the rest of us are together frequently, the Fighter nephew and his wife live a few states away so it's seldom ALL of us spending time together. It was indeed a lovely and most glorious Mother's Day for me.
