Mother’s Day Things

My Everyday Life: Week 20

Sometimes when I’m in a wave of grief, I start searching for things on my website or photos on my phone because I like to see where technology leads me.  It’s one of my favorite ways to invite magic into my life and BOY have I left a trail of it!

Yesterday I wanted to see what would come up when I searched for “SHUTTERBEAN MOTHER’S DAY” and because I’m definitely missing my mom and my Dad is getting married next week so my feelings are all complicated and confusing. Grief wave! The oldest post I found was on my first Mother’s Day in 2009.  

wednesday!

2009 Tracy had a garden helper! This was her first Mother’s Day! 

happy mother's day!

2010 Tracy had a toddler with squishy fingers.
