Iām Margaret in Minnesota, and this is my mom's-eye perspective of a kid-heavy life. I love the Lord; I take lots of photos; and I try to always tell it like it is, from sex to depression and everything in between! I hope you enjoy your time here. ā„

It’s really very horrid of you to make me cry over my morning coffee. That was beautiful. Though your post and Karen’s have joined forces to give me a giant panic attack. š
And he looks exactly the same as he did when he was an infant! And you are just beautiful in all of those photos.

What a beautiful tribute and what a handsome young man. You are so blessed. 27 years ago today I gave birth to my second daughter (third child). This is a very good day!! Peace and Blessings!!

I always, ALWAYS cry when I watch these slideshows, because then I can see how each child is so dearly loved by his parents. (I loved the picture of your husband under the baby “jungle gym”!)
Have a wonderful baptismal day celebration!!!

So who gained more weight over those 11 years, Joe or your husband?

(sadly, I am all too aware of which of us it is.)

What an absolute darling!

Yes, I always cry when I watch these slide-shows too!
Can you tell me the name of the song and who sings it? Its fantastic. My daughters’ school has the motto – Let your light shine – so I think it would be appropriate for a graduation slideshow for her.
Your son is a cutie and yes, he looks very loved.
Happy days to you and yours,
Julie, Millicent South Australia

Margaret, I’m sitting here in tears after watching this montage on your precious family and son. Like Barbara said, “Don’t Blink!” cause before too long you’ll be watching him drive out the driveway leaving for college. The years go by wayyy too fast. š

That’s a beautiful video. I had never heard that song before – it was perfect!

It is wrong of you not to offer kleenex with that montage – just plain wrong!
Beautiful, Margaret. What a handsome young man he is becoming.
