When my three boys were young, our summer vacation consisted of driving the nine hours to my

parents' place in Maine, where I grew up. While we loved those visits, the truth is we couldn't afford to go

anywhere else. My husband, David, and I had finally saved up enough to buy our first home. We'd even

made an agreement: We wouldn't spend more than $ 100 without consulting each other.

On one of those holidays, I took the boys to the local library, where a silent auction( 拍卖 ) was

underway. I was attracted by one item: Shot nearby, on the rocky coast, the photo was naturalistic,

capturing the characteristic of the young subjects and the beauty of my home state. Up for bid: a session

with the photographer.

In a hurry, I wrote down my name on the sign-up sheet, half sure that my offer of $ 500 would be

topped. It wasn't. And though I felt bad about breaking my agreement with David, I was happy with my bid

won.

The morning of the shoot, we put the kids into the car and drove to a favorite beach. The

photographer, already standing in the parking lot with a camera around her neck, started snapping pictures

the minute they got out of their car seats. She gently tried to persuade the boys forward, leading them to

gather around a rock pool.

When the contact sheet arrived, I knew it had been worth the money. In the photos each boy's

personality shone clearly.

More than a dozen years later, the portrait(肖像画)is a touchstone for me, a key to understanding who

my children are. The photograph is a piece of art and a piece of our family history, worth every penny.
