Description
A poignant portrait of my sister making believe behind the wheel of our family car many years ago. So often as children we chomp at the bit of parental authority...impatient to grow up, believing that the rights of adulthood will set us free. It's odd how once we arrive there, we finally realize just how much freedom there was in being a child.
“Some day you will be old enough to start reading fairy tales again.”

Your sister was a very beautiful child.

I agree Sarah...and she's still very beautiful although she does not realize it.
