Mom

Whiter Shade Of Pale

“When my father got remarried after my parent’s divorce, my mother went through the family albums and cut him out of all of the family photos. Using scissors became too labor intensive, so she switched to white-out.”

In Your Face

Embrace The Blowout

“Mom made me poof up my hair and take this picture for my Dad for fathers day back in 1987. Whenever I post this on her Facebook page she deletes it. Sorry Mom, embrace the 80’s. Don’t be ashamed!”

Where Babies Come From

“When my mom went into labor she didn’t make it in time to the hospital, she ended up giving birth in the parking lot of the hospital. My dad had to leave my mom and run inside to notify the staff. After everything happened the hospital gave my dad a shirt. Well fast forward a couple months later he thought it would be a good idea to wear the shirt to church on the day I was baptized. My mom (standing next to him) was trying to not look disappointed. Even my Godmother and Godfather look disappointed.”

The Delivery Room Selfie

“I had a medicated pregnancy and my husband dutifully took pictures the entire time. This is when they started to sew me up and apparently the most opportune time to take a selfie.”
