This old family photo makes me laugh and nearly cry at the
same time, as it makes fond memories bubble up in my mom-heart.
Sure, I’m proud of my kids these days, as they are growing
up into real-life people. (Ask any parent, if you don’t understand the depth of
meaning of that seemingly simplistic statement.) Sometimes I think they are
even human.

But photos like this one take me back to those sweet days –
when my kids enjoyed one another without fighting (much), when they were
willing to wear adorable matching outfits, and when a mother-and-daughters trip
to the State Fair was a summer highlight.
I miss those moments, when my kids sincerely believed that
hanging out with Mom and each other was as cool as it gets – even on a hot
summer day.
On the other hand, these days we are making genuine grown-up memories, which are tremendous.
