THE KIDS 
It is always a mystery how a photograph of any of these precious children could end up lost or abandoned. Here are a few. You will probably say "Ooh..." at least once.
Dee and the Business School 
The beautiful Dee. A curious story; What do you see?
WHAT'S GOING ON HERE?
"What are they doing?"
Thank you for another wonderful collection of photos. The photos of children are definitely my favorites. Some of the kids have such attitude! The little girl on the rough-looking tricycle is my favorite of the bunch. What a cutie pie!
ReplyDeleteThanks Rosa. Some of these go back a long way. I had them in a slide show originally but the slide show code stopped working so I elected to spread them out onto three or four pages.
DeleteAnother medley of childhood innocence. The children seemed enthralled with simple toys, wagons, trikes, etc. They had more imagination then.
ReplyDeleteThanks Mike Brubaker. Yes, most play was imagination driven. I fear for a generation that has never had that sort of stimulation. "Medley of childhood innocence" That's good.
