Thinking of my mother and remembering my grandmothers with love and gratitude this day.
My mother and me.
My father’s mother and his sister, circa 1942.
My mother’s mother and her brothers, circa 1938.

Sidenote: I first saw the last photo in a magazine article about Aberdeen Homes, a late New Deal housing project in Hampton, Virginia. My grandfather worked as a construction supervisor at the site and moved his young family into one of the first apartments. I finally tracked this photo down in the photo archives of the Virginia State Library.

Did you notice that somebody is standing inside the screen door of the last photo?
Yes! It’s my oldest aunt! (Sharp eyes!)
Neat!
