Mom's Favorite Portrait

Mom_1996

 
 

  Taken in either 1996 or 1997 I think,  at GlamourShots. She loved this picture, but none of the kids did -  we all said it didn't look like her (moms aren't glamorous, you know).    I wasn't very happy when she gave it to me, but I treasure it now.  She doesn't really look 66 or 67 in that picture, does she?

I remember taking it all around the office and showing it off, and asking folks to guess her age.    None of them came closer than 5 years to the actuality.

Thanks. I had never realized it, until she sent me this picture.

My Commitment


  • Though the fig tree does not bud and there are no grapes on the vines, though the olive crop fails and the fields produce no food, though there are no sheep in the pen and no cattle in the stalls, yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will be joyful in God my Savior. Hab. 3:17-18

Authors I enjoy

  • Angela Elwell Hunt
    Everything Angie writes is well-written. Not always easy to read, but definitely *worth* reading.
  • Anne McCaffrey
    One of the reigning queens of Science Fiction.
  • C.S. Lewis
  • Celia Hayes
    Celia Hayes is not only a favorite author but a personal friend. If you like historical fiction, especially thoroughly researched, well-written historical fiction about Texas, you need to read her books.
  • Dick Francis
  • Earlene Fowler
    If Benni Harper were a real person, I'd want to be her friend.
  • Elizabeth Moon
    Sci-Fi/Fantasy. LOVE her Deed of Paksenarrion, and her entire Heris Serrano/Esmay Suiva series.
  • J.R.R. Tolkien
  • Kristen Britain
    Sci-Fi/Fantasy
  • Louis L'Amour
    He wrote more than just westerns, people....
  • Madeleine L'Engle
    My all-time fave. Both her fiction and non-fiction are very readable, and always thought-provoking.
  • S.M. Stirling
    Time-travel/Alternate Histories.
  • Terri Blackstock
    Some of the best legal thrillers (for lack of a better term) I've read. Believable characters that it's easy to care about, as well.
  • Terry Pratchett
    Hilarious!
