Pieter at Stone Valley School
This is Pieter in Kindergarten in Alamo, CA. One year a couple stopped and asked to buy some lilacs. I told him that they could have all they wanted. They filled up their car. The next week, an outfit arrived for Pieter & it fit him perfectly. They owned the Children's Clothing & Toy store inside of the Claremont Hotel in Oakland. We took them lilacs every year & Pieter was allowed to pick 3 gifts. He always had to have a crepe ball that unwound with many small surprises. He wore Buster Brown clothes the entire time we lived in Alamo.
