The classism in this comment section is…yikes.

For context my brother and I were premies. In the 1980s. He spent the first 2 months of his life in the NICU and almost died. It was a lot for my young parents to deal with.

Oh, and I managed to earn a master’s degree despite our collective low IQ 🖤.

I really like this picture! Your parents look like so many young couples with kids from that time period. You’ve done really well for yourself. How is your brother doing now? Did your parents have more children?

Thank you! I love this picture and how ridiculous we look definitely reflects how we all felt at the time. My brother is still a hilarious character and our parents had one more in 1990.
