Mother and daughters

I love this photo, I remember it being taken, my dad fussing where to put the chair and it ending in the hedge-back near the house, the day was hot and sunny we were in our best clothes. It was taken with a box brownie that took a simple reel of 116 film, basically a pinhole camera. The year 1956, I was 5 on the left and my sister was just turned 4 on the right. My mam was a youthful 37, it’s just like yesterday to me though! We were the first of the second batch mam re marrying after the war loosing her first husband. She went on to have another two boys after my sister and brother.

Such a lovely and memorable picture. It's been ages since I last went through my collection old family photos. I must find some time to do that.
