"Place, with a trace of humanity" Photography/Photo of the Day/Pittsburgh

1984- Moment in Motherhood/Childhood

Grafenwoehr Germany. Under the kitchen sink!  One of my favorite photos of Mark, Matthew and Laura.  Everyone laughing, having  a good time. (Mark’s own children are about their ages now).How they decided to get in the cupboard I don’t know but looking at this picture always makes me happy. Scanner not working so photographed the photo.

Who makes me a mom?

Looks like an oven rack or a cooling rack in Matthew's hands. Laughing under the sink.

    I remember those kids too. Wondered if it was taken in Graf or if Laura was smaller in Graf. You brought back some great memories. Have lots of happy thoughts this day!! Kids are great!
