My Worry List

“My mom made a list of things I consistently worried about when I was in 3rd grade, and shared it with my pediatrician. She found the list this morning. Every time I learned of a new ailment or world issue, I was convinced it would happen to me. We had a lesson on seizures…new phobia. Had a lesson on scarlet fever…new phobia. Had a lesson on Joseph Stalin (5th grade)…new phobia.”

Cap And Frown

“Little brother’s 8th grade graduation photo…. priceless. Honestly, I wish there was some story to explain this one. He was pretty picky when he was a kid and I’m sure he was upset about something meaningless. Most likely he couldn’t go over to a friend’s house or something. As you can see my parents were never too keen on putting up with his crap. Haha… I chuckle every time I see this.”
