I always remember my mom's death anniversary (3 years ago now) because it is also my mother-in-law's birthday (90 years old today).
Shown above is an acrylic painting I did of her holding an ice cream cone, months before she died. I often think of her when I am on my way to our family doctor for an appointment as I took her to a lot of those in her last couple of years. She would say that she really enjoyed these outings even if it was just to go to the doctor. We would always go to lunch after, or maybe have an ice cream cone at McDonald's, she loved ice cream.

Wonderful painting of your mum, I'm sure you miss her. A lot of the ladies at the Care-home where I worked loved ice cream, and we always had supplies on hand for them. Have a great weekend, hugs, Valerie

Wonderful memory.
Lovely painting of your mom and a very precious memory.
Thank you for sharing this special moment with us.

Your Mom sounds like a wonderful person and I can understand why you miss her so much. what a sweet rendition of her.
That is a sweet memory you have and the painting makes it even more vivid. I'm sure she was very happy to be with you.
This is a sweet picture, capturing a sweet moment in time. David and I took my mother out to lunch once a month for a number of years. She was most thankful, despite her dementia.
Such a beautiful memory and a beautiful picture too!
A really loving painting Christine, your Mum looks so happy and content in it. Lovely and snug in her pretty coat too xx
Great picture and touching tribute to your Mom!
I haven't thought of doing a portrait. But of family member or someone I know personal.
I do remember that artwork.
Thanks Peggy
nice memories of your mom to have :)
A beautiful tribute to your mom. And the artwork is wonderfully done. May she rest in peace.
Gosh, three years already?! Tim sure flies.
Great painting and memories.
I’m so sorry for the pain you are feeling, Christine. Your mothers-in-law is the same age as my mom. I’m glad you have such good memories to hold to your heart.
It is a nice tribute to her :-)
My dad would have been 68 on 2nd Jan. He died aged 50. I miss him so much :-(
Such a beautiful tribute to your mom.
God bless.
All the best Jan
