This is my Mother in the 50’s. The Lincoln Bookends are still in the family room of my grandmothers house and so is the fireplace.

Geezus, your killing me here Allee. Not too long ago I asked my mom about this series of pictures. I asked why she was posed at the desk and all dressed up in taffeta and she told me her and her sister would play dress up. I found that incredibly sweet considering how much I love her and how tough her youth was. Her life was simple and she said it was something to do to pass the time. My mother is a sweet woman. Geezus, I wasn’t prepared to get all phleklempt over a kitschy post here but it’s all good.
