  1. Love the pic! You're very lucky that their ages were written on there.

  2. What a wonderful picture. It caught my eye because I have a granddaughter named Madelyn Moore. Also have one whose middle name is Grace. I have so many old photos with that same border---I love the old pictures!

  3. Caroline - My mother did not write on many of her photos (and unfortunately appears not to have written on any of the ones that I cannot identify), so this is one of the few. Based on appearances, I can use this one to date other photos, too.

    Becky - There are so many photos in my mother's albums with that border. There are a couple of other motifs that recur a lot as well. I think Mom must have done what I used to do - take pictures and develop them in big batches.

  5. Hi Misti - I am the daughter of Mandy (Grace Madeline) Moore; your dad and I are first cousins (which makes you and me first cousins once removed).
