Recently I came across this photo. Yep that is me on Christmas probably in about 1964. It was taken with my parents brand new Polaroid camera.
I love everything about it. The real tree covered with icicles. My 'European' school girl look with knee socks and a blazer with some sort of insignia. I'm even wearing a barret. The flipped hair which was so stylish! And just look at the TV! It was my own TV for my bedroom. I remember how thrilled I was.
I really wish the camera had captured the whole living room. I'd love to take a walk down memory lane.
My parents hardly took any photos after we moved back to Lonoke. There are quite a few of me when we lived far away from home but from the time we moved back to Lonoke when I was in 3rd grade until I graduated from high school there are few.
My children and grandchildren won't have that complaint.
I have 30 boxes of slides that I am working to digitize.
20+ videos
25+ paper scrapbooks
Blog books for the last 13 years
And so many photos of them on my phone and computer that I wouldn't even attempt to count them.
They might have the reverse complaint - too many photos.
