First Grade School Play

Wow. Look at my mask. Even back then I was learning how to play hide and seek. When my extreme shyness would not work, I could pull down my mask, or just find me a hidey spot. I was the little girl in the brown shirt. I remember going to the movies during the time this picture was taken and the usher telling my older brother that I could not sit on his lap. The first day of kindergarden, a boy a little older than I was, was walking home from school with me. We lived in the projects and when I was almost to my house he told me to take off my coat and lay it on the ground. I was so scared and knew exactly what he was going to do. My parents drove up just in time and I ran to the car.
