A treasured photo of my grandfather, the patriarch of our family who suddenly passed away a year ago. He is sitting in his living room at our family gathering and flipping through a family scrapbook I made him for christmas several years back. Inside this album are photos of his entire family who preceeded him and he loved this album. Him looking through it reminds me of why I create! Such a warm and loving man he was.

I would have to say that one of my favorite photos is one of my boys taken at a nearby park w/a train car. It is fun and colorful!

My oldest daughter went off to college two years ago. When she came home for Xmas, I was able to get all 4 of my kids in a shot together....all smiling and looking happy. I blew it up and framed it. I won't know the next time I will get them together again.

I've had the same favorite picture for some time and often share it when I speak about foster care and adoption. It's a photo printed on a large canvas of our 3 girls walking along the beach at Hilton Head, SC holding hands and smiling and laughing. I wanted to get a "natural" photo and wasn't having any lucky. My husband walked out into the ocean and dropped his sandals in the water, which brought the cutest, most natural smiles to our girls' faces - priceless!
