mom's masters graduation, 1966

my great-uncle loaned me a big pile of old family photos this christmas, and i simply love this one -- it's my mom's graduation with her masters degree in teaching from Yale, in june 1966 -- so she's several months' pregnant with me!

 

both of my parents look so incredibly young -- mom was 24, and dad, 25, was a year away from finishing his phd -- and i don't seem to have many pictures of them together, so this image seems both wonderful and strange to me...
