cool photos, indeed

The baby is my grandmother, Frances. Approximately age 1. Holding her is her grandmother, Abbie. Next to her is her great-grandfather, Silas. And finally, on the very right, is her mother, the woman who we all refer to fondly as Grammie Marthie. Or Grammie Martha. Or Mattie. Depending on who's talking about her. Four generations.

Nala gets all excited about this photo, and I'll admit it is very cool, especially when I think it it the only photo of my (yes, I'm not stuttering) great great great grandfather.

I know photos exist of the 3 generations since then... and there's one with 4 that I have, but not including me. Someday, I'm sure Zora's descendants will see hers with as much awe as we all viewed this one with.

In the photo below: Frances age 94, Bill, Sue, and Zora, approx. age 1.
