Happy Mother’s Day

May 10, 2015 by Mike Powell

Happy Mother’s Day to Moms everywhere, who loved us and supported us as we took steps toward independence, all the while keeping a watchful eye over us.

Thanks especially to my Mom, who is now in heaven.

  Thanks, Allen. I wasn’t originally planning to take any shots of the goslings, but they were so cute that they proved to be irresistible.

  Thanks, Sue. It was a happy accident–I was trying to isolate the gosling.
