Jackie, That poor child looks so abandoned and confused. Just wanted to give her a hug and tell her its OK.

It was such a scary time for me..
My dad was taken away to the war.. He did not have to go till 1944 or 1945.. I do not remember the exact date.. And mom worked at the ration office.. in Hamilton Ontario..
And myself and my sister were put into daycare.. and daycare was not sorted at that time and I acted out..
And apparently they put me in a closet..
I took that glimpse of myself from a formal photo of my dad and us.. when he was home on leave..
I had a stamp on my hand and I remember showing it to the camera..
I have lost the photo and I gave that painting away to a fellow ACA..
I guess I could not handle it..
Thanks for the hug.. here I am 65 years old.. and part of me is still there..
But then I guess that applies to a lot of us..
Jackie
