A Gem From the Photo Scanning Project


My project to scan old photos has got me looking at them again and the memories are flooding back. When I scanned this one, I thought what a gem it is. My sister Marilyn and I (Marilyn on the right, me on the left) used to like to put on my mother's clothes and play dress-up, as all little girls do. So this photo is more than a memory for me - it is also an archetype of little-girlhood. Don.t you love the old hats? The funny thing is - I wanted so much to dress and look like a grown-up then. Now I wish I could dress and look like a young girl again.
