Here’s a throwback to when I was a crooked-toothed little girl. I probably just ate an Ellio’s pizza before this picture was taken, & I remember wanting to be just like my cool big brother who’s holding our cherubic nephew. I could romanticize my youth & say those were “simpler times.” But they weren’t. They were messy, traumatic, and complicated. But in this photo, I’d like to imagine that my brother and nephew are staring off into some hopeful future beyond this picture, beyond what I could see. https://www.instagram.com/p/CKCcpZPBKC3/?igshid=18f39euqjafp3
