Lola's Picture

I’ve long called this my favorite photo I’ve ever taken. It’s now ten years old.

This is from the last time I got to see my Lola, at her 96th birthday. I went with Deanna to give them the chance to meet while we had the opportunity. At her birthday party, she tried hiding her ube cake, watched her great granddaughter play in the pool, and smiled at something just in time for me to snap this.

Miss you, Lola. Happy to report that your more recent great-grandkids are as wonderfully wild as ever.
