This video is called the Mother’s Waltz, a bitter sweet tribute to mothers and families everywhere, especially on Mother’s Day. It is a collaboration with the great American Author and Photographer, Marilyn Armstrong. The photographs in this video are a combination of Marilyn and her husband’s family and 6 generation of my family. It is times like this when family brings comfort. Happy Mother’s Day to all the mothers out there.

In one of the pictures there are three little babies. The oldest is my grandmother. Her mother died in childbirth of the twins that are beside her (the other two babies). She definitely misses her mother. You can see the pout on her face.

Yes, I was particularly interested in that photo.

In those days child birth was perilous. Twins were deadly. My grandmother is pouting. She would be missing her mom. The twins never knew her.

Lovely, although looking at some of the faces, I felt they looked a little sad. Happy Mother’s Day, Canadian Mom. Love Max and I. ❤
