Marketing at the Chicago Bungalow Expo...

Photograph taken by Mike of Dad and Ma at the Chicago Bungalow Expo this last Saturday.  Despite the challenges, my parents pulled together as a team to support my Dad's craft.  My father's work ethic is phenomonal.  And seeing my folks together makes me think of love in its various forms of expressions; no matter which one is illustrated, and no matter how unique its form may be, its mark always leaves a masterpiece creation. After all the hell Ma's been through and all the challenges that will continue to face her future, it's good to see her join the land of the living again even if just for awhile. It's even better to see her trying to smile again.  It's the smile that completes me and the one that my heart depends on.
