New Coats
My Mother and I have had a wonderful time lately looking at old photos and talking about times past.
I came across a photo of my Mother taken when she was six years old.....she is now eighty three. I was struck by this photo as it reminded me of two other photos, one of me when I was four years old and another of my son at the age of four..
The quality of the photos had improved over the forty eight year, however, the story and the poses are very much alike. We are all wearing new coats, notice how our smiles have a familial look.
My Mother. She looks so cute cradling her little doll and wearing her new coat.
This is me, wearing a new coat that my Mother had made for me. She made the hat to match.
Brian wearing the Gucci coat and hat that my Mother bought for him. How cute :)

loveloveLOVE these pictures!! nice generational coat/hat thing you've got going on here, dear Mo'a! that said, just think... next week you'll be happily on your way to Bermuda, where the *last* thing you'll need is a coat.
have i mentioned how jealous i am? (okay, so maybe i'm really happy for you because i know you're going to have a fabulous time, but that doesn't mean i can't be a little green.) xox
Neva: I am getting excited about Bermuda....No coat, but it kind of sounds like I need a umbrella :)
I will be thinking of you my dear Neva :)
Oh, man, Mo'a. I think if I met you as a child I'd have been kindly.
Doug: So nice of you to say.
Cute cute. I'm thinking Iceland in the background... and maybe ducks or geese? Bermuda? hmm, no snow and ice there. Nice. I love the pictures. How fun that you and your Mom get to look at them together. Sharing special moments like those is a treasure you will cherish later.
Bermuuuda - have a great time!
Boy cuteness just passed from one generation to the next in your family. I love these picures. Your mother and you even have the same physical posture somehow.
Your coat reminds me of a favorite coat that my sister and I had the same of. It was green courdoroy with leopard buttons and collar and a matching hat with a leopard button on the top. Oh man, I wish I had an adult version today. I wish I had a picture of it.
Nice to be back for a visit - lovely new place. Look forward to where you're going with it.
awww. How adorable
Ooooh! It is all sooo pretty! The coats are soo pretty! You, your mom and Brian are all so pretty!
You have me itching to go shopping for coats and so Loverboy has me chained to the sofa (it is where my laptop is you see) as he screams NOOOOOOOOO!... *sigh*
;-P
Lovely post and you know I am a sucker for pictures, don't you? *Winks and grins*
Terry: Yes it is 77 years ago....I am not sure whether they are geese I know they had chickens....I will ask my Mother.
Yes, Mother and I have been going through a lot of photos lately and enjoying it immensely.
Terry do you have snow already? ....we are having a wonderful Indian Summer here.
g: it is so nice to see you here again. I agree with you Mother and I are very much alike even today...we have exactly the same speaking voice, which confused everyone when they talk to us on the phone :)
I would also love to have a coat and hat like that today :)
I am so looking forward to Bermuda.
Kimberly: Welcome :) I will pay you a visit soon. Always nice to meet new people.
MizBohemia: Thank you my dear :) I am also looking forward to coat buying.
*wink* Yes,I know how much you love pictures.....I try to keep feeding your habit *wink* :)
