Mom’s Blues
“My son made a nice little Mother’s Day Booklet for me when he was in grade one. I must have been having a rough month.”

In Bloom
“A picture of my family and I (I’m the little girl with brown hair). My mom thought it would be a good idea to take the family to get professional photos. We were rocking the mullets, huge glasses, and floral prints.”

Thumb War
“What a proud moment for mom. Little did she know that there was no thumb sucking allowed in the picture!”

Tube Tops
“This is a portrait of me and my mom taken at the local Woolworth’s in the late 70’s. My mom thought it would be cute to take photos in our tube tops. I posted this pic on FB as it’s always been one of my favorites; I thought it was so sweet. Two weeks later, a friend saw it on FB and suggested that it could be a contender for your site. I HAD NEVER THOUGHT OF THE PHOTO IN THAT LIGHT, but now that I see what others see, I can’t stop laughing.”

Feeding Frenzy
“A lovely picture I drew of me, my cousins, and brother throwing my mother into shark-infested waters. I distinctly remember adding stripes to the shark because I knew tiger sharks were known to be aggressive. This is neatly labeled on the back ‘Sarah: 7 years old’ and lives on my parent’s fridge. To this day, I have no idea why people weren’t more concerned.”

Baby Got Back
“During our ‘perfect’ beach photo shoot, my oldest son jumped on my back, propelling my infant son out of my arms (as my middle son looked on in amusement). My infant son was not harmed, just wet and scared but mommy is forever traumatized.”
