my mom.

Here's one I posted five years ago. I took the photo about 2½ months before she passed away. She hadn't wanted me to buy the small pumpkin at Safeway, but I did anyway. I carved that pumpkin for her and she was so tickled by it. The top soon got all burnt because she kept the candle burning inside all day. She had lots of good memories about me and my sister, revisiting them that Halloween.
