Sixth Birthday

Image

Sunlight is streaming onto a screened porch where Barbara Brumder is smiling while sitting at the head of the table. She is posing with a wooden toy hoop around her shoulders. Her place at the table has been decorated with flowers, and there is a melon slice on her plate. A cake with six candles is sitting in the center of the table. A tennis racket and unwrapped gifts are resting beside her plate. Her younger brother Philip is sitting on the left and is looking off to his right. The area around the porch is wooded.
