Who is that cutie in the photo pray tell?
LOL! I’ve been going through boxes of my dad’s slides and found this pic. It summed up the early 60’s in such a classic way, I just had to post it. The little girl is the daughter of one of my folk’s Canasta and Pinocle playing couple friends. She and my little brother were the same age. We all spent a lot of time together. My dad took this picture in our front yard.
They came through you not from you -Kahlil Gibran
Thank you for reading and leaving the lovely Kahlil Gibran thought.
Amen, my friend! They are/have/ will (the times).
They were/are/will forever be (my son and daughter) for which I thank God.
I’m only just able to command myself, most of the time! 😉
You’ve got stye, Paulann!

I hear that, Debbie. Working toward command of ourself is a full time job for most of us. Thanks for stopping by!
My daughter turned 16 last week. I think she’s hoping I finally figure this one out. I guess I better start swimming…
Happy 16th to your daughter! Happy swimming to you! I know you will both enjoy, and survive, the journey. 🙂
But not beyond God’s reach 🙂
Thank goodness, Heather! 🙂
That is a fantastic picture!
It’s one of my new favorites, Belle! I discovered it this week while going through slides my dad took of family and friends during the 60s and 70s. I thought it captured childhood in the early 60s, without saying a word. Glad you enjoyed it!
