                               (This article was written in March, 1977)

                               Well, they finally came back...
                               We're talking about those wonderful
                               elementary school portraits that millions
                               of parents are induced to buy each year.


                               In addition to all four kids, old Mom and
                               Dad optimistically had their pictures
                               taken also.

                               As with most things in life, some photos

                               turned out great, while others probably 
                               should have been left in the darkroom.

                               For instance, Tammy's and Heather's
                               pictures turned out just beautifully. And,
                               Billy's will always be cherished for it
                               clearly shows the spaces where baby teeth
                               had once resided. And Matt's pix portray the 

                               wind blown boldness of a five year-old.

                               Mommy asked us to be kind when we wrote
                               about her picture, so the best we can do
                               in that case, is to go on to a brief description 

                               of our own photograph.

                               We had our picture taken while wearing a
                               bright red tie and bright green coat. When
                               the pictures came back, our coat had turned to 

                               a dingy gray. And, what with our 5 o'clock
                               shadow showing, our whole face just sort of
                               slid down into our coat. The best thing
                               about the picture was the blue background.

                               Hopefully, when the picture of our inner man
                               is exposed, the finest features shall be found

                               in the man...not in the background.
