Eleven days old

 

So there's this thing in the Hicks side of the family where we take pictures of babies when they are 11 days old. I have no idea how it started or when, or why, but it seems to trace back to great-grandma Annie Arnold Hicks. Probably just coincidence, but several of her 9 children were photographed at age 11 days. The composite picture above is 4 generations -- my grandmother Cleffie, my mom Wathada, me, and my firstborn Christopher -- all taken at 11 days old. Below are some others from the family photo archives...
