I have made my mum a Christmas present from a photo frame and a mounting piece of card. Then I have copied photos of her cats from the past. On it is Tucker a brown Burmese, Sylvester a foreign white, Mini a brown and ginger, Tiger a tabby and Fluffy an black and white long haired cat. I made me happy to see all the old photos and remember all the cats from the past. Do you ever look at old photos? If so which type of photos? How does it or would it make you feel happy?

I am attaching one of the photos I treasure most. It is my photo with my mother and brother. I like the way my mom balances her hold of me and my baby brother. The photo speaks of how my mom would try to protect her kids' fragility.

Your treasured photo sounds really special so thanks for trying to share it. I can't see your photo and think it might be my laptop. The photo shows your mum with you and your baby brother so protected and cared for.

I love visiting old photos. I believe they are a good remedy to help depression. I have many old photos here, but times of depression are few, so I usualy look at them for pure enjoyment of the past memory.

Ah, nostalgia! I love memories and going down memory lane. I too have a few of my old albums and several CDs of digitized snaps of my family, friends and everything and anything that caught my fancy. Though my job keeps me too busy to have much time to spend on reminiscing, I do go through my collection of photographs now and then, and every time I do, some part of me that I had almost long-since forgotten comes back alive, friends who had almost gone off the radar get remembered again.. frantic efforts are then made to unearth their contact details, sometimes even reunions are setup.. It's been a while since I rummaged through my old snaps and you just reminded me what I needed to do!

Hello maximax. It is so nice a present of yours to your mom. Yeah, I love to see those old photos as they can always remind me of the past wonderful days. I have a lot of old photos as well. I see them once in a while. It is a wonderful memory of ours with those photos there. Good day, friend.

As it is truly said that all the past is very sweet,I like very much to look at the past in the form of photographs and relish the same.

I'm always looking at photo's, but sometimes it makes me sad, because my children are growing up to fast.
