Pieces of the Past: Happy Mother's Day

Happy Mother's Day

This is also posted on my Funoldhag blog - but it certainly is vintage and a big piece of the past so I am also posting it here.

This would have been printed on a hectograph by Miss Placher, who taught the one room school that I went to. The poem was probably written on the board for us to copy and we colored the flowers. It's so much fun to find something like this done when I was a little girl of 9 going on 10. There is not much in the way of keepsakes from my childhood. Happy Mother's Day to all of you moms out there! (Click to enlarge)

Old Pictures of the People in My Life

In this blog, I will post pictures from the past of the many people in my life who I love and have loved. The initial post and any that are labeled Pearce Family refer to my mother's family. Dan and Maggie Pearce had five children, Nelle, Nan, my mother, Harry (Ham), Leah and Ed. They took a lot of pictures and I plan to post many of them. My brother has sent me many pictures over the internet this past week - some of which I haven't seen - and this has prompted me to set up this blog to display those wonderful old photos.

I will also be posting pictures of my family, my husband's family, and our family. Those posts will be labeled by the family's name in the list on the sidebar. I hope this is something that will be enjoyed by anyone who looks in on

my blog.

I will try and tell as much as I can remember about people and places and events and of course much of it will be inaccurate but really just having the great old photographs to look at is fun in itself. And I do know who lots of the folks are.

Enjoy.
