Happy Mother's Day to all the mothers out there! It seems that bloggers have been digging into their family photo albums and posting great old pictures of their foremothers, so I thought I'd join in.

Here is my maternal great-grandmother surrounded by her daughters. I only ever met one of them, my great aunt, who is holding that cute little dog. If she is any indication, they were extremely loving women.

Here's a lovely photo of my grandmother (left), with an unknown friend.

And here is my mother, on the right. That appears to be the Pyramid of the Sun behind them, so I guess this was during her tourist guide days. She apparently made quite a bit of money and had her own car, which intimidated the macho men around her. My father, son of a very independent businesswoman, was not in the least put off, and so here I am.
