mom, kids and wallpaper


I have posted other copies of this picture in the past but I thought it might be good to go ahead and post this one, too, as a wrap up to this series of pictures.  Several things come to my mind as I look at the details in this picture.  It appears we are out in the country.  There appears to be a large field next to the house.  My mom is wearing a kerchief on her head.  I don't recall her doing this unless some heavy cleaning was involved.  The wallpaper design is very distinctive.  And lastly, my brother Steven is the spitting image of my mom.  I never realized how similar there faces were.  Everyone seemed to think he took after my dad's dad because of his short height but he is definitely a close copy of my mother.  My mom has a sweet, yet tired, expression in this photo.  I have no idea where we were but I believe this picture was taken in about 1954.
