Happy Mothers Day


Happy Mother's day from MadSnapper and her color book Fun Families....








My Mom died in 1990 and she would have LOVED to see all these creations by ME using color books, for Her....She loved animals and bright colors and teacups and flowers....


In Memory of Mary Lucille Overby McCall who bought me as many color books as I wanted...

Sweet photo of your mum (and of course, cute colouring pics!). Our mother's day is the last Sunday in May and this year it falls on the date my mum died (4 years ago)...

Such a wonderful post, Sandra --and tribute to your pretty Mama. I lost mine in 1991--and miss her too..

Love all of your coloring book displays today!!!! SO NEAT.

We just got home from a week at Ocean Isle Beach, North Carolina. Had a fabulous time....

Happy Mother's Day.
Hugs,

((HUGS)) to you for your sweet mama who left too soon. I lost my mom in 1982 and she also would have been amazed with all this computer stuff!

Inger said...

Oh, you Mom encouraged your creativity with coloring books and look what you have turned into. The most fun and creative person on the blogs. I loved this and I know your mom would have too.

I loved your response about my yard comment, which made me realize that I do have a yard here, both front back and side. I just don't have a neighbor yard.

Send emails to my aol account for now, OK, I ran into a ton of problems with the other one. I will change back for my blog too. For now.

What an awesome tribute to your beautiful Mom.
I feel the same way about mine.
I think she would have been proud to see how I am living my life and using the things she taught me.
I spent years and years coloring in coloring books too.
Maybe that's why we have such an affinity to each other ....(:0)
Happy Mother's Day Sandra

Hey Sandra and Happy Mother's Day to you too. OMCs Mama Mary Lucille would have been very very proud of her creative daughter. Little did she know she was raising a Mad Snapper for all the world to love.

You have your Mom's beautiful smile too.
hugs madi and Mom

Happy (late) Mother's Day wishes Sandra and glad your mom bought you all those coloring books so you could continue to share such fun with all of us. We spent the day in NJ visiting my mom and taking her out to dinner as well as Grenville doing some small chores for her (he's a sweetie).
