Mom day

A few kinda funny images to celebrate my mom! 1) Running down the Jersey shore... apparently we didn't know people were supposed to wear shorts, flip flops, and bathing suits on the beach. I am wearing a frilly dress, red tights, and sneakers. FOBs FTW. 2) Brushing my mom's hair in our messy first apartment, hehe. This was clearly during my boy haircut years. 3) Being mischievous at some mall in Jersey while my mom tries to take a proper photo.

Also, I really love this image of my mom below. I dug it up some time ago and have always been drawn to the candidness of the moment. It feels like she didn't realize her picture was being taken. There's some great light in that minimal (out of necessity, not style) kitchen too. Plus I don't think she was much older in this picture than I am now. I just love it.

Hope it's a great weekend for all of you moms!
