Mom
The Runaway Stroller
“This is from the spring of 1977 so I’m 3 years old and we’re at the Houston Zoo. I’m the one in the runaway stroller. My mom is the frightened woman in the red and white top realizing my stroller was rolling off and evidently, my dad took this picture as he was walking up. I don’t remember the incident so I must have come away from it unscathed.”

The Donkey Dilemma
“My mother booked a photoshoot because she wanted special pictures of us three children with a cute donkey. But whatever she tried my little brother would not go near the donkey let alone sit on it. My sister and I obviously had fun watching her endeavors.”

Why So Serious?
“The theme of our family photo from the early 80s was I guess: ‘Let’s pretend we’re having a fun family game night…but be serious.'”

Ratt’s Nest
“My mom had a free session at Olan Mills and she said if I went with her, I could wear whatever I wanted and I could ‘Ratt’ my hair.”
