Every time I sign in to Facebook it asks, "what's on my mind?" My answer is rarely short enough to fit in the status box provided. This blog is a collection of my random thoughts and reflections that answers that question.

Favorite Photo Friday: How A Picture Taken in a Hospital Bed Can Make you Smile


If there were a time my mom could communicate with me from “the other side” it would be now, to tell me, “Don’t you dare post that picture of me!” This picture was taken 15 days before she died. Yes my mom looks less than her best but her two granddaughters and I, her favorite daughter Daria, climbed into bed with her. Can you see who else is in the photo? Do you see who my mom is holding as if she’s her third granddaughter? Yep, that right! That is the sole element of this photo that makes me smile every time I look at it. (Actually none of us look fantastic.)
