  1. OK. For real?????
    Adrienne. Have you ever, on a snarky day, been tempted to go to town with photoshop???
    Tanita, I'm passing this on to Small One.

    Big time.

  2. Sometimes the little ones tell me their teachers have told them to find these photographs, but sometimes little ones are also unreliable narrators, so it's hard to say.

  3. We get fairly regular requests for photographs–let me repeat: PHOTOGRAPHS–of Jesus and the Greek gods. Explaining why we can't provide them always takes some delicacy.
