getting emotional
my uncle passed in may after suddenly droping dead.
His daughters had to clean out the house when they sold it after my aunt and uncle having lived there for over 50 years.
well, today in the mail arrived a large manila envelope with tons of old pictures...of my late granmom, late mom , late cousin who died from breast cancer and so very many others.
I how have a picture of my grandparents and my aunts and my mom at their anniversary.
oh my I am over whelmed....some of me as a baby with my long deceased grandmom...just unbelievable tohave these pictures..some i have never seen ...
Awww Marcelle, what a wonderful treasure you have been given. I would be overwhelmed too! Enjoy your visit with all your families' photos, it will bring back so many wonderful memories. Keep the tissues handy.:hug:
Deb,
i cant stop tearing up.
I have a picture of my grandparents ( my granddad died before I was born and I was named for him) and their three children one of who was my mom.
Pictures and letters I had sent to my aunt while my son was growing up...
Baby pictures of me with my deceased family memebers...
I cant tell you how over whelmed I am.
I am putting them all in a book for now so nothing happens to them till I can copy them or decided what to frame..
when my mom died , my step dad through away all my baby pictures that my mom had kept in hat box . So these are precious to me ..sorry didnt meant o go on and on
TT, don't apologize. I think it's wonderful that you are getting to go through all of the photos and letters. I'd be emotional, too!
PM is right, don't apologize. I'm happy that you are sharing this emotional, yet joyful gift with us. And your cousins should be commended for sending the photos to you. So many people nowadays don't fully understand the value of family photos & history. I love looking at family photos & they don't even have to be my family - LOL! I bet your son will get a kick out of seeing you as a baby!
Christy - what state are you in? Are you still in Texas?
Drinking coffee and doing a little catch up here! Off after while to take my Mom for a couple doctor appointments.
Marcelle, it is wonderful if emotional getting to go through all those pics and bring back your past. Enjoy them. They are priceless. And If you didn't tear up you wouldn't be human :hug:
I'm in a coffee shop having a break between work and my photography course.
thanks for understanding GAN
I took a few to work today and Kiara (lukes mom) said
"oh Celle, your son looks just like you" as I showed her a picture dated april 1961 where I was the same age as luke is now ...lol
I told my son about the pictures when he called tonight. He is coming home for a wedding this weekend and he cant wait to see them.
and I cant wait to show them to him.
still so excited.
Awww Marcelle!!! I would be super overwhelmed as well!!!! It's just a very, personal, precious gift that they gave to you. It's so awesome that you are getting to see all of those relatives that made you so happy when you were younger.
Right now I'm at my uncle's house in Sacramento and catching up on facebook and on here. Took too long in the car.
Your son will really enjoy those pics Marcelle, and in years to come he too will hopefully be able to pass them to his family too!
Rest up OM13!

first I gotta say thank you VA.
thank you all for understanding this emotional old broad.
My cousin sent me the best gift.
I cried when I saw pictures of my grandmom and me I never knew existed.
I felt great today to show my son a picture of his great grandparents with their three daughters...his grandmom, and two great aunts.(One of which is like a grandmom to him since my mom had long passed and she had raised me.)I think he looked at me with a smile on his face and said Cool mom. never have seen this one of your whole family together. So nice for you to have that.
speaking of smiles , Joanie, do you think I look that happy???
Oh my god, still cant believe I was hugging him when JAHH took that picture.Have not seen my son since christmas.

Ladies thanks for the understanding ,fun and friendship .
Ooh and the big belly laugh
TT, enjoy those pictures (and your son)! I love looking at old ones like that!
I've been going through some of my family and trying to put together a series of pics of my trusted pony, Lightning. He was a hellion, but we all had so much fun with him! He lived over 30 years and was bought for my older brother (7 years older!) when he was just a kid. Then I got him, my younger brother and sister rode him, and even my own kids got to ride him! My Dad always said he would outlive him, but of course, he didn't. Every once in a while he would manage to get out of his pasture and go on a run all over a 3 mile area and just beg us to try and catch him! He would see us coming and throw his head in the air and take off again. Sometimes he would come back home on his own and sometimes we would manage to catch him. Like I said, he was a hellion, but what great times we had!
Lots to do today....paint the bathroom vanity, clean house, put some pics in newly painted frames.......enjoy the beautiful day!
