Family Photo*

My oldest brother needed some photos for a paper he was writing as part of his master's program.  I scanned and sent quite a few, and the girls and I laughed at every single family picture, because I was the world's homeliest child.  Mom protests every time I say this, but, really, only a mother can deny it.  (Things didn't start to look up until I was in high school.)

Ever heard the term "red-headed step-child?"

It was babies like this who inspired it.

*Sorry for excluding you, Luke, Joel, and Deborah, though, frankly, it's your own fault for not having been born when the picture was taken.
