Wow, what a stark difference between the two prints! They really are exactly as you describe them, and I'm glad that you formatted this in such a way that we saw the black & white print first and then the color print at the end rather than side-by-side. I also love that you chose to put the color print last; it was very jarring when I scrolled down and saw how different it was.

It's wonderful that you have these things to remember her by and this poem was a wonderful tribute to your mother on this anniversary. I know that the years have a tendency to smooth the rough edges of our grief, but my heart still goes out to you and I have you in my thoughts.
