Ajoleblon...A Cajun Tale

This journal is a bunch of rants about nothing. Mostly lighthearted happenings in the life of a woman who is very simple and who wants for nothing but greatly appreciates whatever is given. You will find nothing profound here but hopefully something that will make you laugh and that's what I enjoy doing most. Being humorous. Fight all error, but do it with good humor, patience, kindness, and love. Harshness will damage your own soul and spoil the best cause.

A lovely Mother's Day!

Do families still dress up like this for a Sunday Mass?  My mother sent this picture via email to me this morning.  I had almost forgotten how dressed up we were every Sunday.  We looked like the perfect happy family and to some extent I believe we were.  Some memories were not so wonderful but having seen this picture, I can almost believe there were no bad memories. 

This indeed was the perfect Mother's Day gift from my mother and not only is it Mother's Day but her 70th birthday.  Happy Birthday Mom!

Also, now you guys know I was once young. Here is proof! Judging from my brothers ages, I must have been about 9 in this picture.

 

 

PS  Jimmy check out my boots!!

Have a great day!
