Apparently I dropped the ball on class photos. I recall paying for pictures but I don’t remember Picture Day ever happening…then I was handed this. Clearly second grade will forever be remembered as the year he needed a haircut and loved Star Wars. I found myself searching his class group photo for another kid whose mother also forgot Picture Day. And there in row 2, second from the end, was “Phineas and Ferb” t-shirt boy. Oh thank you, I am not alone. I immediately felt a connection with this equally scattered mother. I sensed that she was somewhere in her cluttered kitchen, holding a glass of wine, also searching the photo. I hope that she sighed with relief at the sight of my son too.
