SPS with a Twist

What I would like you to do is post a favourite childhood photo of yourself, but one that has a little story behind it.

This is me on the beach with my younger sister and Dad when I was about 3. I remember the spotty shirt and clearly remember having a "baddie" (cut/graze) on my knee which got sand in it and crying and wanting to go home!
