Favorite Photo

I don't usually do a post on the weekends, but this is for a contest.  My blog friend Queenie Jeannie is celebrating her Blogaversary this week and is giving away something every day!  Today she is giving out an awesome picture frame... all anyone has to do is post their favorite picture and tell WHY it's their favorite pic and you could win this adorable picture frame...

I was searching through my pictures of my family, and I love this one of my mom...

After my dad passed away four years ago, she went thru a very rough time, as most of us do when we lose someone we love.  In addition to that, she had to have a triple bypass 3 mos after his passing.  She has since had 3 angioplasties, and 8 stents in her heart.  

This just shows her happy and healthy, and holding her beloved dog Tipper.  I love my mom soo much, I can't imagine life without her.
