Before there were John & Kate or the Dugger's, there was my mom & dad. But, they didn't get a TV show. I'm the last of the 13. Mom is now 90 1/2 and getting past a very bad year health-wise. She was in and out of the hospital 13 times in the past year with strokes and stroke-like symptoms.
Last year, I made a vow to myself to enter a portrait of her in a challenge, but unfortunately, didn't get a good enough one until New Year's Eve. I know, even this one isn't the greatest example of portraiture and I suspect it won't score highly, but I don't care. It's my mom, she's awesome and I love her.

I like this natural expressions. She looks like she could keep all 13 of them in line, lol. The reflections in the glasses keep drawing my eye and detract. (voted earlier)
