Once A Tomboy, Always A Tomboy

I guess the saying is indeed true after all. The boar father said these were taken in 1998 which would make me around five in these photo. So I guess my tomboy-ness was pretty much set at the tender age of five with a cream coloured turtleneck and a pair of dark green corduroys! Note the impish grin and devilish twinkle that reads as 'Dad, you're gonna have to pay for all this pretty posturing for the camera.' He must have been really missing us to be scanning these and then sending them via e-mail to all three of us, heh. I love how this photo perfectly encapsulates the kind of relationship the twins and I share. The slightly older by five minutes Tweedledum was always (and still is) the peace negotiator between me Tweedledum, a Switzerland if you will, caught between Britain (me, since I always win the arguments) and Germany.
Trivia: Teletubbies began airing exactly on my 4th birthday–at least according to Wikipedia, which of course as many of you know is a credible and infallible source of info.

So adorable! :) I think my mom dressed me in a variation of the outfit you're wearing in your photo -- apparently, turtlenecks were a staple in my childhood wardrobe. Now I can't stand them.
