Children and Mother in 1972 (Happy Mother’s Day)

This is a picture of a mother with her son and daughter, 1972. Location of the photo is unknown. It was sent to me a former blogger about a year ago. She has since shut down her site (Ready for the Shift). The photo features a mom with a beehive hairdo. The son is wearing some kind of Evil Knievel jacket in red vinyl with faux epaulettes in navy with white stars.

Happy Mother’s Day! To see more pictures of Gen-Xers with their mothers visit Our Mothers.

Here’s a beautiful song by Jessica Allossery.

I’ll Let You Go

“The day has come to let you go
Only happiness I will show
I’ll always be here for you, you know
Nothing takes away my love and it shows

You’ve grown up now, things have changed
Grew some wings now, your flying away
I’ll always be here for you, you know
Nothing takes away my love and it shows
Yeah nothing takes away my love
when I let you go

Cause you’re my baby
Always will be
I hope you know
My love stays when you go

Some years down the long long road
If you need help with your load
I’ll always be here for you, you know
Nothing takes away my love and it shows,
Yeah nothing takes away my love
when I let you go

Cause you’re my baby
Always will be
I hope you know
My love stays when you go

I’ll let you go
I’ll let you go

You’re my baby
Always will be
I hope you know
My love stays when you go”
