Sepia Saturday 748/749 - New Arrivals

 


These photos would have been a better match for last week's Sepia prompt, but I didn't get round to participating then. To the left, my grandmother Sally (age 55) with little me on her lap, Christmas 1955. To the right, she is holding my father in the same position, Christmas 1931. My dad and I were both born at the end of August, so we're both four months old in these photos - 24 years apart.

At first I had some other photos in mind for this week, to do with dogs - but then realised that I already used those a year ago, for Sepia Saturday 698. Click on that link if you also want to see photos of my grandparents' dogs (they had two in my childhood, one at a time).
