@ LINDA:
I have no recollection from that place, and it was my only encounter with such creatures. There are bed bugs in my building, but never got any here in my apartment, fortunately.

What a cute kid! The big bear and the big red ball, what more does a kid need? Hmm, OK, maybe a rosary to psych everyone out. Classic mid-century furniture, just like my parents had c. 1963. Don't get me started on roaches. I had some pretty funky apartments when I moved out on my own. Nuff said.

If I had been a magician, I would have needed a bunny instead of a teddy bear.

Too Two cute. Looking a bit like a small magician about to do the rope trick.

@ KAREN S.:
Well, I did after all study Graphic Arts, decades ago. While I've never been in the business, I guess I've retained a certain flair...
You know!?!

@ JIM:
I was 2 and it does look like some Blackwatch tartan. Story of my life since the jacket I wore at that private school my parents sent me to was also Blackwatch. And as an adult, I did wear the kilt for a while...

Just totally awesome, you not only were like the cutest little boy, but surely the best dressed and cared for...and your unlit birthday cake sure caught the flash when they took the picture, that is so cool...it probably was one of those large flash blubs? I also enjoyed the sleek presentation of each snapshot...that is very cool! You are a master with your photos!

What a cutie! And saying the rosary with the family.....I thought my family was the only one to do that!
For a second I thought you were wearing Nova Scotia tartan! Can't quite see it.....Black Watch maybe?
You were 3 in 63? A child still!

@ TERESA WILSON ROGERS:
Since I don't have kids, I'll take your word for it. But I venture it is the novelty effect that attracts young ones to play with such things.
I still get interested in odd things...even if only for a short while!! Some things remain the same.

Love the bow tie and the tartan as it is a favorite of mine as well. As far as playing with the rosary, don't you know that babies/toddlers never want to play with their toys, it's always the odd things like the empty boxes or their parents car keys, etc.

What a cute little man about town you were. Glad people pointed out it was a rosary - at first I thought that it might have been a string of dried insects.

@ CHRISTINE H.:
I wouldn't care for insect pictures either. I did photograph a dragonfly and some butterflies last year, but that's about it.

Maybe you're missing a plug-in in your browser to read flash. Look it up!! Mozilla has such plug-ins.

You were adorable, especially with the vest and bow tie. Teddy was cute too. I'm glad there are no photos of the cockroaches. Couldn't get to the song for some reason.

@ PAT TRANSPLANTED to MN:
I believe I can say I've had quite a journey so far, and I'm now seeking more serene horizons. I can't face any more emotional tsunamis or have my world shaken to the core. Comes a time when one needs to settle down, comfortably...
As for the pics, if it weren't for photoshop, they'd be a total loss...
Trying to salvage a few memories here.

Now that starts out with one giant bear and one tiny boy who appears to be wondering how to deal with this, but you did get through by the photos. I smiled to see you with the rosary--we never know where life will take us do we? If there were concerns about these photos you did a great job, they look new...

Memories make for an amazing maze, revealing only a little at the time.
While I was restoring these, memories of various comments came in flooding, and I can only rely on those as I clearly don't remember that birthday of mine, obviously...
