It’s A Hard Knock Life
“I was 6 years old. My mother was obsessed with me being Annie because I had curly hair. So, she fluffed it up, bought me a red dress and a stuffed dog and had my picture taken. I can’t sing, I can’t dance and had no interest in theater. Hopefully, the photo was enough for her dream.”

“Dad smoking inside at my birthday party (I’m the baby in the hat). Shirt says “Platte County Teenage Institute on Substance Abuse’ and I have no idea if the shirt is serious or ironic.”

Off With His Head
“This is a picture the morning of my 1st birthday before a party. My mother ‘edited’ this pic the old fashioned way and I’m assuming the man with no head is my father. They are obviously divorced and what the hell is going on with the feet of my pajamas. I can guess that I did more than one face plant!

“This is my son on a weekend trip to a drive through safari. My daughter was crying and he wasn’t exactly thrilled with the close up animal encounters either.”

Mrs. Beasley And Me
“A photographer came to our house to do family portraits and then some of just me. He thought it would be cute to tape my Mrs. Beasley doll to my back, so she could read over my shoulder. Not creepy at all.”

Mum’s Moment
“As dad lines up the shot, Mum, who’s dolled up for a rare night out, makes sure my kid brother doesn’t ruin her photo op.”

The Collector
“Third grade school photo day. I collected Beanie Babies pretty obsessively at the time and thought I should show off that hobby by bringing my favorites. The one on my shoulder was my #1.”
