   This is very Forest Gump, cute. It would make a great shot for the back cover of your book. Any pic that shows Maddy and you wearing Liz’s rings will pull at people’s heartstrings and sell books.

    Love this one! But my fav picture of you two is the one of you feeding Maddy in your suit in the hospital. I think it just sums up everything and shows the emotion and gravity of the situation. Can we pick that one somehow????

    For me…it’s where you are looking, and where Maddy is looking that speaks volumes..and I’m a sucker for the ocean

    You look so at ease together, like finally a little bit of the world has been lifted off of your shoulders, and together you are truly making it. Pure Love and Hope.
