Today, I'm sharing a re-post from July 2008, "Two Jerrys" in response to the Writer's Workshop prompt, 1.) Recycle a favorite post from July of any year that you have been blogging.
Two Jerrys
Believe it or not, the picture on top is of my dad. The year was probably 1936 or maybe '37. What was Grandma thinking? It's one thing to dress him in a sissy top like that, but why the topknot? Looks like Dad was way overdue on his first haircut. Wasn't he precious?
The biker babe on the bottom is me, Jerri. It bothers me that he looks more feminine in his photo than I do ...

Oh, that's funny! My mother in law put my husband in his big sister's bonnets when he was a baby because she didn't want to buy any hats for him. I tease him relentlessly about it.
ReplyDeleteAdorable!
ReplyDeleteDid your dad ever live that picture down?
ReplyDeleteToo funny~ when my dad was three, he had long ringlets that his mom loved and didn't cut. Poor kid! Today, he keeps a buzzy cut, b/c he hates the curl!
ReplyDeleteI love this picture and story. I looked like a boy forever...
ReplyDeleteHA! That top was pretty sissy.
