Beautiful!

What adorable babies! I got it right the first time guessing who was who. I had to chuckle seeing Jeff banging on the bongos at such a young age, while Mike was pulling off the scowl of the century, and Steve just sitting there happy as a clam. I'll bet your parents still think that is one of the best Christmas pictures ever.

I think the greatest invention ever was the camera (and the film, of course!) so we could have these memories forever.

Porcaro Bros. Picture

The Porcaro Bros. Left to Right are: Steve, who is the youngest, myself and then Jeffrey, who is the oldest. Many people think that I am the youngest brother, however, Jeff and I are only thirteen months apart.

I remember being forced to line up and take this shot for a christmas card. Two minutes before this was taken, I was crying and bitching. The original photo would reveal a wet spot in little Stevie P's crotch. He couldn't be more than two years old in this shot.

Gotta love it...

Gotta just LOVE it when the 'rents
put you upto stuff like this. .
man; do I know what THAT's like!

Mike: did anybody ever get you and Jeff confused one for the other when you were small? The reason I ask; My Mom was born 9/50; my Aunt was born 9/51. They are often asked if they are fraternal twins.
(Bone structure and face shape being what it is---people have actually posed the question to my Aunt!).

Who's who?

According to Tribute to Jeff, Steve's on the left, with Michael in the middle ... I thought they were in age order, though, with Steve being the youngest. Am I totally off?

Either way, it's an adorable picture!
