These negatives are in pretty bad shape, so take this for what it is worth.

I don’t get all jazzed up by this type of thing, but I’m sure Jesse will. I’m sure if you look hard at these pictures you will probably find me. You will probably find Jesse. You will probably find some of my other friends. Don’t ask me where. I don’t really care all that much.
These negatives were in pretty rough shape, so take these for what they are.

It is my habit to not comment on the pictures I post in this project, but I’m going to make a small exception here.
In the first couple of pictures, Carla is sitting on the old abandoned well in the basement of our old house on 415 Greene Street.
I was never allowed to even go near this well because my Mom feared that I would fall in it and be lost to the ages.
The fact that Carla was allowed to sit on this means 1 of 2 things to me:
1. She was the favorite child.
2. She was the expendable child.
I’m not sure what is the correct answer, but I’m fairly certain that my Mom never saw these pictures.
A couple of more observations.
Usually there is always a ton of Alexis in Carla’s childhood pictures, but I’m struck in these pictures how much Johnathan there is.
Don’t be surprised when I steal some of these mirror ideas in the future.
