That's a pic from my mom when she was 40, eating Cumberland Farms ice cream. Yum. Anyway, Sandy is 72 years young today. Happy Birthday, Mom!
I guess I am feeling a bit nostalgic today as I am listening to music from the '60s. One of my faves is "Like to Get to Know You." by Spanky and Our Gang. Do you LOVE these outfits?

Check out the guy in the back with the groovy turtleneck. The magenta velvet jacket is something I also covet.
There were some outfits I had when I was a wee one that were almost as groovy. My mom had good taste. I remember having a hot pink and hot green striped mini dress with hot pink stockings (yes, stockings: little garter belt and all. Thank God for pantyhose's advent a few years later. Not that I wore those til the 80s.). And the baby blue go-go boots. I wore those proudly to Mrs Donovan's first grade class at PS 27. I was the coolest chick on the playground.
Well, thanks, Mom, for the cool clothes and the lessons and most of all, your love. Happy Birthday!
