Ruth, Making Memories
She notices the girl’s hand resting on the pumpkin and her easy smile, and remembers those little fists that once clutched her thumb. Time gathers its weight around her; these moments are precious, becoming lifelong memories.

Time Stand Sill as I like to say…
Sometimes it would be nice if we could make it stand still, even if only for a few minutes, to let us truly appreciate those moments. Thanks, John!
I am amazed at the expression you have on both the grandmother and the granddaughter. Well done and written. Made me smile!!
It’s a process, and sometimes you just have to keep creating settings and images until you get results you’re pleased with. Luckily, you can fine-tune as you go. Glad you liked it!
