If you started thinking about Tom Hanks in the movie BIG then you are not the only one! I pictured the scene where he was wearing that crazy white tuxedo at the company party eating the small corn. LOL!
Today I have been scanning up a storm! We are preparing for my Grandmother's 75th Birthday bash on Saturday. It is going to be some party! 200 guests have been invited, and I get the pleasure of putting together a slide show celebrating her life. Looking at all these pictures and seeing my Grandmother at different stages of her life makes me marvel at the life she has had! No, it hasn't been perfect and there have been struggles, but in every picture she is smiling and there is always family around her.
What an amazing woman! Part of my new journey as a writer began with a narrative that I previously mentioned about the extended family. I will not post this piece today because I am reading it at the party so I don't want to ruin it. I am also tweaking the piece and adding some Spanish flair to it. :)
I pray that in my future--if I am so blessed to make it to 75 years old that I have pictures of myself to look back on. Not the ones just of me, but those that document those treasured times spent with family.
