mother's day front steps
Originally uploaded by Zama Ree Do.

that was me
with my mom and sister
on Mother's day
B.J. has her coursage

I have the sweet little yellow
dress on that I wore often

I remember how tormented
I was when Mr. Mendek
demanded that we were a dress
and nylons to our band concert
in sixth grade

I had to wear nylon sheers
one on each leg
attached to a garter belt
which rolled up my belly
popping the garter open
and making the nylon fall

I just wanted to wear socks
for the rest of my life...
then panty hose was invented!
