Cutting the Apron Strings

My friend Kris just sent off her only son, only child, on a mission for the LDS church for two years. To say she's missing him is a huge understatement. We took these photos less than two weeks before he left and it's the only family picture they've ever had taken. Criminal, really, to have a family this good looking and not get their picture taken on a regular basis!

I'm not sure if this post will bring a smile to Kris's face, or make her weep like a baby. Better grab the tissue just in case!
