Different Strokes

This family portrait fills me with joy. 

UPDATE: Thanks to our comments for pointing us to the original upload at Awkward Family Photos, which included this note from the then 13-year-old mohawked girl in the photo:

"my mom was so pissd that we showed up looking like this for our family photos. like she didn’t notice until just then what i looked like..lol. and yes, i am a girl. who used to have a big black mohawk.lol! and thats my best friend, not my sister."

Magnificent...brings a tear to the eye.

Maan...if I'd gone to school with those gals, what book would be left uncarried, notes uncopies, or doors unopened for those sweethearts?

I like how the mom and daughter are holding hands, and they're all three floating in space right in front of that super-masssive black hole at the center of the Milky Way.

My opinion is that they are a beautiful family. I love the look.
