Moms Get Blamed For Everything, Don’t They?
By GlindaFamily.com, a Disney site, is sponsoring a contest in which you can actually win a prize for being badly dressed! Well, when you were a kid, anyway. Or maybe you can cash in on badly dressing your own child.
I’m thinking back to my own childhood, and for a while, my mother was dressing my sister and me like twins. Uh, except we were almost six years apart. I remember one year we were particularly resplendent in matching red Christmas outfits of scratchy polyester with peter pan collars and white rickrack trim. Good times, good times…

Heh, heh, I think I’ll win this if I send in my sister’s pictures. She rocked the cat’s eye glasses from Grade One on. Me? I was a little Peggy Lipton with a vinyl miniskirt and white go-go boots!

Those pictures look like most of my childhood:

I love my mom. I hope my kids are not as embarrassed at their pictures as I was at mine.

This is one saving grace of having gone to Catholic school–I may have had bad haircuts occasionally, but there’s nothing to make fun of in the clothes I wore for school pictures. Plain white blouse, plaid skirt, matching cardigan.
