May 2025 in Pictures by Fran Joyce

May has been an month of surprises. The Catholic Church has chosen a new Pope and he’s from the United States. We hope Pope Leo XIV leads with kindness and compassion. Hopefully, the bad weather is over and we can finally enjoy spring and those beautiful spring flowers.

Happy Mother’s Day to everyone who fullfills that role for a child/children. This Memorial Day, we remember the brave men and women of the Armed Forces who gave their lives in the service of their country. May your sacrifice always be remembered and honored.

We hope you enjoy May 2025 in Pictures in This Awful Awesome Life!
