Here are some photos of my granddaughter in an outfit that has been worn by every female in our family since the birth of my older sister Ann more than 65 years ago.
Her mom, in this same outfit on the day she came home from the hospital in 1993. I did not have a fancy camera and was apparently not very good at taking newborn photos.
And here is me back in 1961. My Dad did have a good camera and knew what he was doing.
The sweater, cap, and booties were made by my grandmother, Ethel Mills. They are still in excellent shape. The dress was a birthday gift from my grandmother's Sunday School class and has finally started to show its age, so I bought a new little white dress to continue the tradition.
