This is Emily and me around Christmas 1980 when I was three and she was about a year-and-a-half. This picture is infamous in our family because it’s the only formal one Em and I ever had taken together. In February 1981, her sister Anna came along and ruined it all for me. I didn’t have any sisters so that was the end of me getting my pic taken in matching outfits! THANKS ANNA, GEEZ!! Actually when we were little, Emily and I used to tease Anna for not being in it. Then a few years ago, when Strawberry Shortcake came back into fashion, I bought the three of us Strawberry Shortcake shirts for Christmas and we took a snapshot so we could finally all be in a picture together with matching outfits. Somehow, it wasn’t as cute as I imagined it would be, which is why I’m not posting it here!
