Missing Her


This is one of my all-time favorite pictures.  I think it's because I captured one of the true essences of my mother in this picture.  She's hugging me like there is no tomorrow yet still talking her head off.  I'm so lucky she's not only in my life but she's my mom.  I'm one of the few that truly gets the best part of her...her heart, priority, wisdom.  This is a woman who knows the exact time to grab your hand at a moment when you're about to breakdown.  She's a woman who loves without boundaries and isn't guarded by the things people have done.  She expects nothing and gives everything...which ultimately leads to ruin in earthly ways but leads to an footprint placed into existence that I can only hope to achieve.
