What a bitter sweet birthday. To lose one's parents on one's birthday and then give birth that same day. That is a lot to process emotionally for anyone. The dialogue creates a great sense of a close-knit family and the piece was nicely balanced. I'm not sure though why you use bold type for the dialogue. This is rather unconventional and detracts from the readability of the post in my honest opinion as it makes the eye wander about the page unnecessarily. Consider how the word bold in bold in this comment draws your eye to it and away from the text you should be reading. I would recommend that you run your posts through a grammar editor in future to catch the few minor errors that can be found and easily corrected before publication. It's an easy win to elevate your submissions.
Since photo album is the prompt, I would have liked to have seen more attention paid to this part of the story. Nevertheless, I liked the way you used the prompt to bring her a moment of joy in reminiscence on her baby's 3rd birthday and also her own birthday. It offered a form of emotional closure to her loss.
Thank you for writing in The Ink Well.
