I ♥ Faces~ Candid

The Challenge over at I ♥ Faces this week is: Candid

I didnt take any awesome candid shots this week... most were football shots but none that I was truly proud to call " candid" so I am using this old but powerful photo I took of Kylie ( my daughter) and my aunt after the death of my cousin and her husband. There was so much grief between the two. A woman who lost her daughter and son in law, and a teenager who lost her "aunt" and godparents.

I ♥ Faces~ Before & After

100th picture post for me...and I ♥ Faces Challenge today is Before & After shots.
