Moms & Grandmas

I pray each of you had a very blessed Mother’s Day yesterday. Well, on my nifty writing/blog planner, I had written “Ode to Moms” for today. But, I couldn’t find the time to write it ahead of time (it’s now Sunday night). So instead, y’all can catch a glimpse of my real-life mom (you don’t mind, right Mum?) and my grandmothers. After all, I wouldn’t be here today without their influences. Enjoy!

 Annie Cecelia Jarre Cramer (great-great grandmother)
 John Hillard & Pearl Constance Cramer La Shell (great-grandparents)
 Jack Hillard & Anne Elizabeth Crook La Shell (grandparents)
 James Matthew & Margaret Elvira Lamb Crook (great-grandparents)
 Aunt Janet Elizabeth, Grandmother Janet Elizabeth & Mother Heather Margaret McGee
Incidentally, today (May 9, 2011) would have been my grandmother’s 98th birthday if she were still living.
