Here I am at age two. People often said I
looked a lot like Mom when she was about that age. I am a Gemini, born June 3 and Mom said I was talkative and a very curious child, always getting into everything!

Playing "Dress Up" was one of my favorite childhood pastimes. Here I am decked out in Dad's duds with Mom's handbag! Some other fun things I did as a child were "Playing Store" and sketching fashion drawings. And of course I played with my Barbie dolls. Mom  made me take piano lessons as well, every Saturday.

My first tricycle! I was five years old and rode all over the neighborhood. A year later I got my first bicycle and when the new Woodrow Wilson Bridge opened, Mom allowed me to ride across it with all the bigger kids. The older children seemed to accept me and we often played together. On occasion I would write plays and we would act them out.





I'm standing in the dining room at our 1981 Christmas party. Sister Rosy snapped this picture during my blonde incarnation. Blondes really DO have more fun!

Ed's 67th birthday party. How do you like my new perm?

Here we are celebrating again with our British friend, Edward Mundy. This time is was Valentine's Day with flowers compliments of our friend Mike Hardesty.
