Past, Present, Future

Four generations-- my Grandma, my Mom, me, and Emily.
Sometimes I stop and think about all of the women to whom I am indebted. I think about their lives, their hopes, their dreams, their triumphs and I am so grateful for their legacy.

What a fabulous picture. I love the idea of just the hands. We got a 5 generation picture once when David was 3 months old. 6 weeks later Aaron's great-grandpa died. It was a once in a lifetime opportunity. Time is so precious!

This is one of my favorite pictures. It is so precious! And what a beautiful tribute to the women who have influenced your life. It's so inspiring to think of the legacy others have left for us! Thanks for reminding me.

What a beautiful picture! I'd never thought of hands before, but I really like it. A keepsake.
