Childhood poloroids

I'm kind of loving the throw backs I'm seeing around. Vinyl? I don't hate that this is back. Polaroids? Yes, please. Polaroids were exciting. There was the momentary delay, but then you had in your hands a picture, a capture, a slice of life that you could then pin on your cork board, scrapbook, or put in the sticky pages of your family photo album. Sure, now all our pictures are on our phone and you can instantly see it, filter it, share it with millions. But, I miss the filterless world. And let's take a moment and acknowledge people weren't doing selfie Polaroids and I argue we were better for it. I mean, turn the camera around for Pete's sake.

If you could capture one of your favorite childhood memories in Polaroid form, what would it be? Who is there? Where and when are you? Why is this moment so meaningful to you?
