Saturday Night Genealogy Fun - Celebrate Mother's Day - Show Us Some Photos

Calling all Genea-Musings Fans: 

 It's Saturday Night again - 

Time for some more Genealogy Fun!!


Your mission, should you decide to accept it (cue the Mission Impossible! music) is to:


1) Sunday, 11 May is Mother's Day in the USA.  Let's celebrate it by showing some of our photos with our mother.  


2)  Extra credit:  What did you call your mother during her life?  What did your children call your mother?  

3)  More extra credit:  Have you written a biography or tribute to your mother?  If so, please share a link if you have one.

4)  Share your photo(s) on your own blog post or in a Facebook or SubStack or BlueSky post.  Leave a link on this blog post to  help us find your Mom photos.

Here's mine:

1)  Mom photos

a)  A baby picture - me and mom (probably in late 1943):


b)  A pre-wedding photo - me and Mom in 1970:


c)  Betty and her family in 1976 (Randy, Betty, Scott, Fred, Stanley):


d)  My family in 1985 (Linda, Lori, Mom, Tami, Randy):


e)  Mom and her three sons in 2001 (Randy, Stan, Scott, Mom):



2)  I think I called my mother "Mom" all of her life.  Perhaps a "Muh-ther" once in awhile when I was exasperated.  My daughters called her "Nana," as did the other grandchildren.    

3)  I enjoyed every day with my mother from 1943 to 2002.  You can read my tribute to her in  Saturday Night Genealogy Fun - A Tribute to Your Mother.
