My first Mother’s Day by louannwarren

My first Mother’s Day

We lived in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and my father took me to a photography studio to have my photo made for Mother for Mother’s Day, 1944. He forgot my clothes and the photographer sat me on a bench and took my picture. Dad had put my diaper on and obviously didn’t quite know how to pin it on correctly. We laughed through the years at all the gaps.
oh, my goodness. you've been wearing your smile since you were little. aren't you adorable! aces to your dad for the diaper.

Oh, Lou Ann, it is easy to see you have had that infectious smile ever since you were born! This is absolutely precious!

@summerfield Mother always said “Lou Ann, you were born during WWII, there was no film, everything went to the war effort”. Honestly this is my only baby photograph. I would have believed her but all my friends my age have lots of baby photos. Smile!

An instantly recognisable smile! I trust your underwear is more secure these days 😂😂
What a great photo from yesteryear, when Dads weren’t so hands on as they are now maybe 🤔

@grammyn @ludwigsdiana @onewing @carole_sandford @joansmor @mittens @beryl @jacqbb @julzmaioro @happysnaps thank you all so much for your wonderful comments. I’m going through photos getting ready for my 80th birthday party. This was one photo I was afraid I had lost, so glad to find it.

@louannwarren you can’t possibly be that old! Not that it is old, but you should make it look good
