First Day Photos


Every year when I was little, my mom would take my picture on the first day of school. The picture was always taken with me standing by the front door with my hand on the door nob. I imagine the photo was staged this way because the front door was the "formal" door.

But in reality, my brother and I always went out the back door to school. We'd walk out the back, grab the neighbor kids, walk through the little woods, up the alley until the alley ended, and then we crossed over to the main sidewalk.

Why did we walk this convoluted, back way to school?
Well, because it was more fun!
