My hair was being curled in plastic hair-rollers by my mother in 1971 because it was supposedly cute. Hated it. (Why I then permed it in the 80s is beyond me. I blame Molly Ringwald.)
Very sweet. Your sister has doggy ears, or at least we called them that! It's when your pixie haircut grows out enough to bunch into two "doggy ears" on each side of one's head.
My strict parents never would have allowed my hair to get to that length. Probably a good thing too because I have no regrets when looking back at old photos.
Hey, worst Mother's Day gift EVER: At fifteen years old, a pal and I were arrested that day for sniping at car hubcaps with BB and pellet guns. Hard to live that one down.

We all had our John Denver years. I had them too.

Tintin, Please tell me your not a Liberal, it would be like hearing Betty White come out for Obama.
ReplyDeleteshe already did....
DeleteSweet Lord I want that to be true.
ReplyDeleteMum's got some cool shades.
ReplyDeleteWhenever you post family photos,Tintin, I am always struck by how attractive and solid your family looked. You've reminded me how much I miss my Mum.
At least he never ate a dog, unlike Obama.
ReplyDeleteMy first reaction was "who's family photo did he post?" As I looked closer, I realized it is YOU - so cute! DMW
ReplyDeleteAnon - my Dad ate dog. He said it was greasy.
ReplyDeleteDMW- that's not me but my evil twin brother George.
