"Not a stitch of makeup. Not even on my wedding day."

It's been a very long time since my mom and I had a portrait together. I was talking to her over the phone and she mentioned she'd never gotten a professional make-over before. I told her it's because she doesn't need one, she's a natural beauty. She said, "Ya, but I want one. Just to see!"

"Life is what happens while we are making other plans."

When was the last time you were photographed with your Mother? I took my mom's annual visits for granted. Covid happened and I wondered what was the last actual photo I had with my mother and I had a small moment of panic. It had been ten years, either I was behind the camera or she was. There were a few candid images but nothing of just the two of us for an entire decade.
