This is Amanda and Eric.

Amanda made me her adopted daughter back when I was a wee little freshman in high school. :] Now, five years later, she is getting married and asked me to take her engagement photos. :D (which I am very honored about!)

I got to meet Eric for the first time and the three of us adventured and laughed around town taking photos. This one was by far my favorite, and they are going to use it for the 'Save the date' that they are sending out. It was amazing to see my adopted mama again after quite some time, and we ended the day with yummy Chinese food, which was amazing as well.

Plaque on the Simeon Monument, Market Place, Reading, England. The plaque reads "Erected and lighted for ever at the expense of Edward Simeon Esq. as a mark of affection to his native town AD 1804. Lancelot Austwick Esq., Mayor."

 

The Simeon Monument, also known as the Soane Obelisk, the Soane Monument and the Simeon Obelisk, was commissioned by Edward Simeon, a Reading-born merchant who became extremely wealthy as a City of London trader. Edward Simeon's brother John Simeon was a former Member of Parliament for Reading who had lost his seat in the 1802 elections to the parliament of the newly created United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, since which time the family had been engaged in ostentatious spending locally in an effort to gain support among the town's voters. Although street lighting had been installed in Reading in 1797, the system used was one of lamps attached to the sides of buildings and as a consequence open spaces remained unlit. In 1804 Simeon persuaded the Mayor of Reading that it would be of benefit to erect a structure in Market Place, which would serve both to carry lamps to light the area and to improve the flow of traffic in the area, and volunteered to pay for such a structure himself.

 

Simeon commissioned local architect John Soane to design a suitable structure. Soane designed an unusual triangular structure, 25 feet high and built of Portland stone. It had no official unveiling or opening ceremony, but the stonework was complete by September 1804. The structure was immediately controversial, denounced within weeks of its opening as "a paltry gew-gaw thing without use, or name", built by Simeon to promote himself rather than for the public benefit. In early 1805 Simeon donated an annuity of 3% interest on ÂŁ1000 to pay for the lamps on the obelisk to be lit in perpetuity.

 

By 1900 a cabmen's shelter had been erected next to the monument, and in 1933 underground public toilets had been built alongside it. Although Simeon had stipulated that the lamps were to remain lighted forever, by this time the lamps were no longer operational, having been replaced by baskets of flowers in 1911. Although the monument was Grade II listed in 1956, by this time it was becoming extremely dilapidated. The market was relocated away from Market Place in the 1970s, and the obelisk avoided demolition primarily owing to lobbying by admirers of Soane, as it was the last surviving structure in Reading to have been designed by him. In 2005 Reading Borough Council agreed to landscape Market Place and to renovate the Simeon Monument. The now-disused toilets and other structures around the monument were removed, and the monument itself was restored to its former condition.

a (very) tiny sign of affection

A Mother's Love is True Love

 

A mother's love is a wonderful love packaged from heaven with special care.

A mother's love is like no other love in which you can compare.

A mother's love is purified by Angels and flows directly from her soul.

A mother's love is justified by God and by his hands he created the mold.

This mold that was shaped and fashioned by God has endured the test of time.

This mold that was taped and recorded by women rang out like a heavenly chime.

A mother's love is unconditional, and from her heart this can be told.

A mother's love is nutritional; it is the fruit that feeds our soul.

A mother's love 'IS' true love, and from her heart she cannot lie.

A mother's love is eternal, the kind that wont' ever die.

A mother's love is the tie that binds, and her bond can never be broken.

A mother's love is branded in our hearts, even when her words aren't spoken...
