5th Birthday


I have had this 30 year old photo printed and on my desk for a LONG time and I finally grabbed it and decided to get it done.  My mom is pictured in this photo along with my boys in 1985.  My mom was crazy about her grandchildren (I know the feeling...I am too!).  Matt was very into super heroes when he was 4 and 5 with Batman as his favorite.  Mom had a friend of hers make him a Batman cake for his 5th birthday party.  Mom has been gone now for 15 years and I really miss her.  This is one of the few pictures with her in it....I wish I had more.  

I used this great sketch from Sketches in Thyme:


I am also entering this page in Clique Kit's September Anything Goes challenge.

Enjoy your weekend -- I am sure enjoying mine!
