I've always been easily riled up by social injustice. My earliest memory of such an instance was when I was 3 years old watching Dumbo being taken away from his mother. I cried and cried when Dumbo visited her in jail and she stuck her trunk outside the bars to rock him because I couldn't think of anything sadder than a child separated from his mother. Now that I'm an adult, I still can't...

I love you, Mom!

You're right. You can't watch without getting a little teary. I certainly can't think of anything worse than being seperated from my mom, unless it was being seperated from my kids.
Happy Mother's day Lynette. You are the best mother in law on the planet and I love you dearly!
Wow! I probably shouldn't have let you watch that. However, I thought it was very tender. I love you, too. Thank you for the post with all our pictures together. We make a good team--cute, too, huh?! Thanks for all you do for me!
Thank you, also Jill. It's easy to be a good mom-in-law with such neat children-in-law.
I like that mom, too.
What a great tribute! I love the picture of you and your Mom wearing the same sandles!
That part of Dumbo made me cry every time too.
I hear you on the separation from the mother. Sometimes I wonder if I'm doing things right...
Very cute post Lar! I haven't seen Dumbo in SO many years, that is such a cute little clip... Thanks for sharing! Happy Mother's Day to all the great women in our lives!
That movie is the most depressing thing ever!
Hope you are doing well. Things are crazy here as always :)
