Hello.

I haven't coloured your mother in law but I see others have done that for you but she was such a pretty lady that I thought I would like to tidy her up a bit. Hope you don't mind!  :)

Hi Brendam

What a beautiful picture you have.  Here is my effort, I can change anything you don't like.  You didn't tell us her eye colour of hair colour, so I just guessed!! :-\

Cheers

Hi everyone, thank you for your hard work on Mom-in-law's photo.  And I also thank you for the comments about her being attractive.  I have to agree with that, she is a beautiful woman both inside and out.  She tells me I am her favorite daughter-in-law (I don't think it matters that I'm the only daughter-in-law ... does it? :P )

Lones, you are right, I did not indicate her eye or hair color.  Her eyes are like a hazel with a week bit of green speck and her hair was dark brown.
Thank you again everyone for the wonderful color shots.

Good Morning Cazza, yes it's great that she has a different color for each day of the week.  I have to share this.  She is coming to visit tomorrow and I can hardly wait.  Unfortunately we only get to see our parents once a year because we live in different provinces and it is so difficult being away with our parents aging.  There will be lots of tears tomorrow night and then when I show her the color photo, there will be more tears.  Oh boy, getting teary eyed thinking about it.

Thank you Boggabarrett, Spotty, Princess Poppy, Sharon, Cazza, Carolyn and Lones for all your hard and excellent work.  Mom looks wonderful.  She will be so excited to see that photo in colour.  The actual photo was only found 'again' over the summer, so it is a new found treasure for us.
Cheers and thank you again and again .....

Good Morning Everyone,

Mike, Carol and Tomkin - thank you for your excellent color jobs on Mom's photo.  I apologize for the delay in passing on my thanks, Mom is visiting and I have been spending every minute I can with her.

Tomkin, thank you for your bravery in going near a Mom-in-Law and making the effort just for me  ;D ;)

I showed Mom her colored pictures and she absolutely loved them.  The look on her face was worth millions.  As I suspected, the tears started flowing.  I am sending a big hug to all of you and thank you again - you are wonderful people!!!!

Brenda
