In my father’s handwriting on the back of this photo: “This is why I fell in love with Martha Ann Fromme.”

Very sweet! Looks like you are really a great family together! Lovely post to remember mothers day
How incredibly awesome…your folks are truly special…best wishes to all…and hope you are having a happy Mother’s Day.
Be encouraged!
So sweet! 🙂 Thanks for sharing.
What a beautiful tribute to your Mom and your whole family. Lovely!
Wow. Stay blessed y’all!
And you too!
Mona, what a wonderful post for what looks to be an equally wonderful (and fun looking) mother. And that goes for the rest of the family as well. Happy Mothers Day!
My family is fun and I am sorry that I have spent so little time with them. I moved away when I was 17 because I needed space away from “all those kids” and just never made my way back home again. I miss them terribly but treasure out times together.
Hi Mona, lovely post….how blessed are your Parents lives.God bless
What a beautiful family with a rich heritage.
BE ENCOURAGED! BE BLESSED!
I know how that feels Mona! Exactly what I expressed in my nostalgic piece yesterday 🙂 Your parents look so wonderful and happy together!
Oh my goodness Mona, these are amazing pictures! I love them so much! Your mom looks just amazing, what a beautiful spirit 🙂 Thank you for sharing these pictures with us all! Everyone in your family is beautiful also!
I appreciate this comment. She was beautiful and so full of life. She’s 81 now and not as vibrant but she’s a strong woman. Strong.
Great tribute to your mother and what a beautiful family. I hope you had a wonderful mothers day!
I was blessed to spend a few happy hours with my son, daughter-in-law and the most precocious granddaughter. Thank you!
What a great series of photos! Thanks, Mona!
Oh thank you! Mother does not have computer so I think I’ll print it and send it to her.
Great get together, hope you had a great mother’s day Mona.
