Happy Valentine’s Day! #ThrowbackThursday

I don’t know what made me share hubby last week instead of today, but it came to me last night as I was prepping this blog that hubby and I wouldn’t have been possible without those who came before us. So today, I’m sharing some very special people, my maternal grandparents and my mom and dad. My mom and grandma, in particular, were amazing women who provided positive role models and taught me that anything that I wanted was possible if I worked hard enough for it. No victimhood in this family even though at times things were rough for them. So today I honor them, miss them, and share my love for them with these photos. My grandparents are to the left and mom and dad are to the right. The little girl in the photo to the left is my mom!

#ThrowbackThursday My Little Shore Baby

As I mentioned yesterday, we are truly shore people and of course, we had a little shore baby. LOL! This is a picture of my baby during a visit to a friend’s place in Long Beach on Long Island. Notice the Atlantic City hat, courtesy of her grandparents who went there often.
