Sept. 2011: Belonging





Dad recently sent me this photo that my Aunt Lucy scanned in from THE family photo album.  In the middle is my grandmother Agnes, surrounded by my uncle, aunt and Dad.  Being that photography was not as accessible at that time, there is one album of family pictures from my dad’s family. The whole family: one album. Each picture: a treasure; there are so few.  So many stories we have had to recreate with our own images.

I have about a thousand pictures of my children, of course thanks to digital photography. They have also taken quite a few on their own, playing around with the camera or phone, and some of these are fabulous.  With so many pictures, it’s hard to identify or come up with one that is a great treasure-we love looking at them all; but I invite you and your children to go through the many, many pictures and pick out one to share with us in our upcoming 3rd Annual Elementary Photo Exhibit: Our Community, Our Friends: Belonging
