“Let us be grateful to people who make us happy; they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom.”
Marcel Proust
November is National Family Caregivers Month, a time to recognize and thank those who do so much within our communities. What a perfect opportunity to celebrate and give my humble thanks to family, friends, and respite volunteers who are indeed charming gardeners allowing Mom to blossom and find great joy in her days. May these images that serve as examples of daily reminders of gifts surrounding us serve as my expression of gratitude.
In case inquiring minds want to know why I have been a bit quiet on this front, it is because I have been busy! To date, I have taken over 450 daily flowers in 11 countries and 19 states. Each day I post a photo on Instagram and my Elmore DeMott Photography Facebook page. Join me in each spot for different images honoring an Alzheimer’s journey and celebrating nature. To view Volume I, the entire first year of “Flowers for Mom”, click here, and for the start of Volume II, check here.
Great things are ahead including a video feature about “Flowers for Mom” and a solo museum show. Stay tuned, and join me in sharing your gratitude with the caregivers amongst us.
