Self Portrait Tuesday

The theme for this month's Self Portrait Tuesday is TIME.

I've been down with the flu for days and have been working tonight to get some photos ready to post, which will  have to wait until tomorrow. 

So....I decided I WOULD give a late post for this SPT.

I would imagine that I'm 8 or 9 yrs old...I'm on the right, my sister, Tammy is on the left.   Why didn't my hair stay that color?

My mom was very great about taking photos as we grew.  She made 4 or 5 albums from babyhood to adulthood.  My sister, Tammy has been in possession of these for about 12 years and I'm at a loss as to how to get my turn at them so that I can scan family photos, etc.  I've asked her, I've asked my mother...it seems everyone walks on eggshells in hopes not to stir up trouble.  What trouble?  They're family photos??  I keep telling Mom...they're YOURS...just take them back.    I'll send a prayer out to God to open doors for my mom to get her hands on her albums again so that all of us can share them as a family.
I honestly feel lucky to have some of the few childhood photos I do have...this one included.  But I grew up with those albums and I'm ready to have the rest.  oxox

Tracy- I see the smile on that sweet little tow-headed girl is still the same. Press on for those family photos. Right now I am the only one in our family who seems to care about that sort of thing, so I have been lucky. I still haven't captured all the ones I wanted, but I'll get to them. There's nothing better. Deb
