Old Photographs


I have a few old photographs of my mother, but know nothing about the history connected with them. It breaks my heart that I never thought to ask her questions about her childhood and she never volunteered any information. So, rather than leaving the old photos in the cardboard box, I have decided to make layouts for them so they will be seen. Here's the first one.

She looks about 3 years old in the photo. There are a couple other photos taken about the same time, so there must have been an occasion for a formal photo shoot. I also have a couple snapshots with her with that bow as well. Love that crazy huge bow in her hair. Somehow, it's really a stretch of my imagination to think of her this way.
