May Photo Challenge: Your Mom

Posted by Jenna, Under Challenges

I promise the title to this post is not the beginning of a bad joke. As you know, I like having the monthly challenges be based on a theme, and what better theme to choose to focus on during the month of May than mothers?

Send me a picture of your mom, and tell me one thing that you love about her. The picture can be old or new, it doesn’t matter (though old ones are always fun if you can dig them up!). And one sentence describing why you appreciate her. It could be the way she celebrates your birthday, or the way she encourages you to follow your dreams, or the delicious food she put on the table every night when you were kids. Don’t stress about telling us the thing you love most, just tell us one of the many reasons why you love her.

Criteria For This Month

1. Find/take a picture of your mom.

2. Tell us one reason why your mom is amazing.

To sign up all you have to do is comment below. Remember, you have to sign up for each challenge separately by commenting on the appropriate post. I will add you to a weekly reminder email list, unless you specify otherwise in your comment. The last week of the month I ask that you email me your photos (and a description) to share with everyone else.

I’m getting all teary-eyed just thinking about what this results post will be like!
