Theme Thursday: Mom

Mom. There are just so many possibilities. I mean obviously I could do a picture of my mom but my mom is most often the photographer and there are very few pictures of her in general and even less if you count out the ones she hates. (Hi Whome.)

I call my mom Whome. It's a long story. Well no it's not but you probably won't get it. I like Hanson. Like the band of brothers. (Musical not military.) They have this song. It's like my favorite song in the world. "Crazy Beautiful." The very first word sung is "Liquid." Only my mom thinks it sounds like "Mewho." And I called her Mewho for a while but my dad didn't like it so I switched it around to Whome. And there you go. That right there perfectly describes my mother and I.

If you really want something that represents my mom, Qualdzy is a good example. But I don't have a great picture of Qualdzy so that gem will have to wait.

So... I think I will go with...


One of the very first pictures of me as a mom taken by my mom. I am so glad she was the other person with me in the delivery area and that she got to meet C immediately. 

It's weird, this is the first time that this weekend means me. Last year he hadn't quite shown up yet and I definitely didn't celebrate or anything because I was the size of a small country. Anyway... fun week of Moms. Link up over at Clan Donaldson

    1. Ha!

      Here's a link to the youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_LxqNBI9eHU

      I should add it is the first word after the "Test test test" and a big "oooooh."

  3. Went straight over to Youtube to listen to the song, love it!! What a great story, my sister is a master of nicknames like this, with a long string of thought behind them.

    Happy Mother's Day to you! Wonderful motherhood story!
