Monday Memories #3

Me and my brother posing for Mom on a long ago autumn day. (Nope..I do NOT know what I did to my upper lip. I do know I have never been graceful.)

Bette what a good picture of you and your brother the quality is excellent. I can totally identify with you lack of 'grace'. I have so many pictures of me as a child with bumps and bruises. I was (and still am) always in a hurry.

That is a very special picture, and I love it. Ditto here on the gracefulness.

Oh my Gosh, I think that little girl is me! When and where was that darling picture taken? (that is only if you want to share that information). I had an older brother also.

I have pictures of sitting on a stoop but in N.Y.C. I used to have bangs like that and the scarf! Oh, my goodness! I think your me!

Brings back memories.

This picture was taken about 1947 or 48. I was around 3 years old. Unfortunately it was not dated. It was in CT..could be Torrington, Winsted, or Hartford.

I remember shoes called Mary Janes as being black patent leather with an ankle strap and ribbon bows on the toes. I'm pretty sure these weren't them.
