Kids' School Pictures





















My kids aren't even in kindergarten yet, and for years, they've been getting their pictures taken at school. We always order too many, and they're not usually great photos. The pictures Genevieve Fridley took last fall are infinitely better. Until this year, Grace has never smiled. And Johnny looks like a greaser in last year's picture. It must be a Latino thing, because we did not send Johnny to school with his hair fixed this way. This year, we had to pay for Grace's pictures upfront, and I wasn't going to do it, but her teacher said, "But what if they're the best pictures yet?" So, I ordered the smallest package, and I'm glad I did.

Oh, I like the one of Grace! It kind of looks like it would be the one on the front cover of her memoir. I admit that the one of Johnny is pretty funny. Josh said, "what's up with that little lamppost?" Leave it to someone with hair like Josh's to notice the lamppost... :)

Yeah really. It reminds me of the saying, "It's just between you, me, and the lamppost."
