A while ago I did some photography for an animal shelter in Maine, for which Mom and Grandma and came along. Mom would often plop a furry critter on Grandma's lap.
I've had this one hanging on my wall for a couple years - a nice day by a lighthouse in Maine.
Same lighthouse day, here walking with Mom
My parents took this, and I think it's adorable. They had just found a new couch for Grandma for her apartment, and she was demonstrating how much she loved it.
My favorite one I've ever taken of her: four years ago, just after my cousin's wedding ceremony.
