Kids
Snacktime Strife
“My six-year-old daughter scribbled this note about her little brother, then stuffed in my hand an hour after she had a snack. It reads: ‘It’s just that everyone pays attention to Jay, not me so no one pays attention to me, so people don’t feed me that much.’ She was apparently starved for more than just attention.”

The Patriot
“This is my family’s one and only professionally taken portrait. I remember being so angry my mom made me wear the uniform from my Fife and Drum Marching Band (for which I also had no love). The photo sessions were taken at my grammar school so the entire school was able to partake in my misery. I am smiling though. Somehow.”

An Uncle’s Responsibility
“My son asked his uncle to write ‘Batman’ above him on the white board. And this is why he’s not allowed to watch the kids.”

The Re-makeover
“When I was little my older sister decided to give me a ‘makeover’, complete with blue eyeshadow and teeny tiny pigtails! Nearly 15 years later it happened once again.”

The Lean Away
“My cousin was married in June and all the requisite wedding photos were taken. Here the bride and groom had been taking picture after picture (after picture) of themselves kissing, and the bride’s little sister got grossed out. Later my uncle posted on Facebook how hilarious this picture was, as it truly captured the little sister’s feelings!”
