Go to your room!

A child provokes -- and captures -- his mother's ire.

My future husband, Wayne, got very into photography when he was about 11. One evening, his mom, Sue, had a ladies gathering. She had already sent the boys to bed when Wayne remembered he had not yet gotten a picture of the event and snuck back downstairs. This photograph shows his mother’s way of saying, “Go to your room!”
