This is the best picture of me ever, I think. Instead of all the other pictures, the ones that showed how other people saw me, this one shows how I saw myself, and still do. When my father found this picture a month or so ago, he thought I had TAKEN it. "No, Dad, I'm the one in it. I'm five, maybe."

I have this overwhelming urge to draw child-Mack in a retro cookie ad.

I have Father's Day, grandparents' birthdays, and my dad's retirement coming up, and I would love you to take pictures of the kids.
Posted by mackillian (Member # 586) on :
Sweet!
Posted by KrabbyPatty (Member # 7055) on :
That is truly a priceless photo. And I see the person you are now in the picture. (((mack)))

Ooh . . . pretty . . . I like. If you ever release an album, this picture HAS to be on the cover.

Mack, I love it!
Posted by xnera (Member # 187) on :
That's a great photo.
I have a similar one that my dad took of me. It's been on my mind recently, for similar reasons--it feels very ME, even though I was rather young at the time. Eight, maybe. I'll find it and scan it.

Crap, somebody cropped the finger!
Posted by mackillian (Member # 586) on :
--I--
There you go. I ACTUALLY didn't start giving people the finger until my father gave me permission to swear at age sixteen.
xnera, that'd be awesome if you could scan it.
Posted by romanylass (Member # 6306) on :

Posted by Eruve Nandiriel (Member # 5677) on :
Aww Mack, you're so cuuuute! (((little mack)))) there, I hugged the little you, you can't give me the finger for that!

The cheek line reminds me of that Alfred Hitchcock logo. It almost seems that the eyelashes are the only truly black part. I'll have to look again.
Posted by Annie (Member # 295) on :
Ooh... let's see everyone's baby pictures.
Here's baby Annie. It's a bit immodest; I apologize.

Posted by porcelain girl (Member # 1080) on :
wow, that is an amazing picture. and yes, you are completely recognizable.
childhood photos like that are so loaded.
i also have a picture from when i was about three or four that is so completely me, inside out. i think i stuck it in an encyclopedia britannica back in virginia and am desperate for someone to find it as it is irreplacable.
i was at the lake in indiana standing on the whitewashed pier disappearing into the brownish water behind me, wearing a purple bathing suit with white hearts on it, white blonde hair blowing in the wind, looking very serious and introspective.
Posted by mackillian (Member # 586) on :
and that is...so you.

me and dad Posted by mackillian (Member # 586) on :
hahahahaha
I love your eyes and that expression on your face. Like you're thinking, "What the crap is THAT?!"
Posted by Farmgirl (Member # 5567) on :
mack -- I have to tell you...
I was browsing through Mad Owl recently and went through your folder of your family photos (your growing up years) and when I saw that one of your parents "1979 Prom" I about croaked! I went to prom in 1979! I'm the same AGE as your parents! I could be your Mom! (in age).
Man, that made me feel so old...

Mac. You are hot and I want out with you.
Posted by mackillian (Member # 586) on :
But remember, my parents are very young. I'm 25 and my parents are 43 and 44.
Altariel: o_O
Posted by Farmgirl (Member # 5567) on :
I'm 44, mack.
Why don't I feel old enough to be your mom?
Posted by mackillian (Member # 586) on :
Because you aren't a grownup yet!
Posted by Eruve Nandiriel (Member # 5677) on :
This is me at 3.

"But remember, my parents are very young. I'm 25 and my parents are 43 and 44."
Let us repeat that for any who were not paying attention. Mack pointed out to us how young her parents are.
Thank you, Mack.

I was a baby model. That's not the best of the pictures, though. I can't find any of the ones where I'm wearing the white dress with the white parasol. I loved those ones.

I really like the second one of you, Goody. You look like you just got caught doing something.
Aww, Abby...you're so cute! My cousin did the pageant/model thing when she was little, too.
