I am posting photographs from my family collections for (Not So) Wordless Wednesday (you know me, I can't go wordless!).
Here is a small photograph from the Seaver/Carringer family collection handed down by my mother in the 1988 to 2002 time period:
It had been a long day of picture taking, and baby Randy was feeling, well, um, grumpy (perhaps hungry? or constrained by his diaper? or my knees were cold? or I wanted to eat some grass?). Maybe she was pinching me? She certainly was holding me back from something!
This is a picture of my mother, Betty (Carringer) Seaver holding her first-born son (moi) on the front steps of her parents home (2130 Fern Street), probably taken early in 1944.
I showed this picture at my talk at SOCCGS on Saturday, and a wag noted that I have the same hairline then as I do now. Ah, genetics!

Bright sunshine! No problem... ;-)
ReplyDeleteEnjoyed the post. Your mother was a lovely woman. I like her 1940s hairstyle and dress.
