I do know who this little boy is. He was my mother's younger cousin who was raised by my grandparents. I wish I could say he grew up to be a wonderful person, but he didn't.
He looks like a little Peter Pan. In truth, part of his problem was that he stayed Peter Pan through the part of his life that we knew him. He never grew up and we lost track of him many years ago.
I hope he found his Neverland and Wendy and not just Captain Hook.

Did he dream he could fly, like I did? I like his Peter Pan looking hat in this photo!
ReplyDeleteFor awhile he was in the Air Force. Does that count? He wasn't a pilot so he didn't fly anything. Poor fellow had a somewhat sad life. So full of dreams in this little outfit.
ReplyDeleteThings change - hopefully so did he. Kim
ReplyDeleteI hope so. I know he had children which I fear he also abandoned. He looks so adorable in the photo. You just never know from looking at a snapshot the turmoil that might be inside.
