Heh.
I suppose the photgrapher behind the camera taking this picture was the family dog, named "Joe"

Cecilia looks like she carries years more worry on her face than her age of 5 would indicate.
Either that, or the sun is in her eyes.

She’s just looking at the real photographer and thinking “Seriously? You think THIS will make an amusing photograph?? What a waste of precious film.”

When one of my brothers died we found and scanned all the old family photos. One of the three of us taken about 1952 showed me at 4 all dressed up, standing up straight, and screaming my head off. My brothers were standing there smiling. I am sure one of them pinched me. That was back when taking a photo was a very serious and expensive business. LOL

I'm in permanent grandpa mode since I took over as nanny for my young grandkids. I find myself searching kidz faces to see how they are doing. Occupational hazard, but God help anyone that puts that much concern on the face of any of my grandkids. ;)

Thanks for the ping, anyway

It’s true. Kids from even back in the 1970s were more mature than today’s kids. When I was growing up in the 70s, 15-year olds were literally acting and talking like middle-aged men.
To: JRandomFreeper
Full time nanny?? That’s a job. They are in good hands. The girl in the photo would probably be happier if she didn’t have to wear her brothers hand me down shoes.

Cream cheese AND lox. This is not a time for half measures.
