A Special Cake for Mom. This one was for Valentine’s Day but it deserves a spot in today’s post because it might be Publix’s best ever commercial.
One-Eyed Deer. This isn’t a commercial but I can’t NOT include this Louisiana doe. She and her fawns were crossing a narrow road in a park where I had been camping. I was on my bike, stopping to snap a few pictures of the little family. The fawns continued on but their mom turned back towards me, a guardian between me and them. It was a just a random moment on a random day when I got the final picture but her stern gaze will always be with me.
Happy Mother’s Day to all the loving moms out there who work hard as protector, guardian, parent… especially mine.
