It’s not often Mom & Ben pose together for a photo. I’ve still got a few from Ben’s high school years that include Nanny, (his great-grandmother for those of you that don’t know) — but just one that I recall of Ben & his only grandmother photographed alone. (In the old photo, they are standing in front of a house that’s long since been sold. An approximately 8-10 year-old Ben was straddling a bicycle with a basket on the handlebars, and my Mom was smiling behind him taking a gift bag he was passing to her. Ben’s faithful hound dog, Feather, was in the bike’s basket — risking her very life to please her master.)
So here’s something rare… to be treasured and remembered. Grandmother and grandson. A candid shot for no reason at all. Those are the best, aren’t they?
