The Love of My Life


This is the man I love. Here, in an old photo, hugging his mother. He is not perfect, but he's a good man, and he's mine.

That's a lovely photo. I have a photo of Jeremiah hugging his mom, but he's flipping me off behind her back...

What a handsome man and what a poignantly beautiful photo! That is the most beautifull photo ive seen in a while.
In ref to you saying he is not perfect, i think there is PERFECTION & BEAUTY in the IMPERFECTION :) plus no one is perfect dear. Love and that connection is all that counts.
thanks for sharing the image with us

Erin: He sounds like a playful guy, lucky girl.

Marian: I totally agree with you. After spending 29 years together, some of the "flaws" have become beauty marks.

Anna said...

Striking photo! And I totally agree with Diane.

There is so much warmth and goodness in this photo. Those words completely describe the way I feel about my boyfriend, Dave. I am almost getting teary from those words. Just lovely.

Sweet photo to see a gentleman embracing his Mama.

Wowzers! He's so lucky to have you too! I wish I had a picture of my Hubby hugging his mom. I'll make sure to get a picture of my son hugging me.

Hugs!!

LOL at Erin's comment! :)

Any man who loves his mama is a good man, beautiful photograph. You're a very lucky woman with a lovely family. Why am i telling you this, i'm sure you're fully aware of that fact! haha

Hope all is well :)

There is something dashing and real about him and kind of Keith Carradine too. My favorite of all the Carradine brothers.

Thanks for the note. I do appreciate it. Maybe Kat is just getting nostalgic or something.

Isabel said...

What a GREAT picture. I'd blow that one up and frame it. It's very sweet and captures a special moment in time.

Plus, he's a cutie. :)
