Family
This photo was taken when I got my Master's degree--December 1996. Aunt Shirl (in red), Granny Jones (glasses), Aunt Betty (we lost Betty in July 1999), and my mom. A great day.
"Family is just accident…They don't mean to get on your nerves. They don't even mean to be your family, they just are."--Marsha Norman
"We all grow up with the weight of history on us. Our ancestors dwell in the attics of our brains as they do in the spiraling chains of knowledge hidden in every cell of our bodies." ~Shirley Abbott
"When you look at your life, the greatest happinesses are family happinesses." ~Joyce Brothers
"You don't choose your family. They are God's gift to you, as you are to them." ~Desmond Tutu

Beautiful picture! Love to you and your mom/family. Please let me know if there's anything I can do.
Praying for your fam through this difficult time. What an attractive group of women, by the way! :)
I collect quotes, and these are beautiful. Thank you.
