Carol may be the Rock Star of Gardening, but to me she'll always be the big sister who used to call her crayons Junior.

Which cute child in the picture is you, Mrs. W?
Oh Sherry, what a way to take the Big Sister down a notch. Crayons named Junior. Ha... Just remember pay backs are rough.
Sure is a beautiful gaggle of girls. I wonder how your brother swam through that sea of estrogen as a young man. He must be tough as a chunk of iron.
"Crayons named Junior"? I have NO recollection of such! I swear!
Carol
I am the cute little one in front. (With the shortest bangs). Carol is the one standing behind (Makes her look tall).
Carol, Carol, Carol. I vividly remember you sitting in the back seat talking to crayons and calling them Jr. It's vivid in my mind.
What a cute post. Way to pump up your sister and then remind her that she is in fact human! :)
You are such a cutie in the picture!
Love it!
I don't remember her calling crayons junior, but I do remember her calling the city county building downtown "Junior". (And it was a very nice article about Carol.)
Kathy, the older sister.
Even though you are all grown up and there is another generation of children, this is the picture I remember from the summers I stayed with you long ago.
You've all stayed sweet and a very special family.
