What I imagine Christmas to be in 1950

12.12.2007


This is a most beloved photo of my mom, Dianne, and her sister, Connie with Santa Claus. This photograph says Christmas to my whole being. It makes me want to have been born in 1946. What do you think? I think my mom was the most beautiful little girl (she's the one on the left)-which is why I think she is now the most beautiful woman I know. One of my favorite things about my mom is her simplicity and her love for simple things. Her bedroom is painted a lovely light, but intense, blue (the color of her eyes). She has a few books, all of which are insightful or pretty, or both. But I must admit that my most favorite thing about my mom is that when she was a little girl she used to pray every night that she would wake up the next morning as a faerie. She wanted wings so that she could fly. I think I inherited the faerie gene. Three cheers for a lovely, imaginative, and wise woman!

Yes, I agree- we have the most beautiful mom in the WORLD! I also think she was the most beautiful little girl- I kind of think it looks like me as a girl- HA! I really do, it looks like me and Jennica on Santa's lap. This photo of mom also looks like Emma.

Hi Ann- you DO have one of the most beautiful moms. How is she? I am so glad that you have a blog. I love to see your perspective on the world and I am remembering my own. I get so caught up in the kids that I forget to look and see the beauty around me. I love it keep it coming!
