Well, the "man of the house" garbage isn't cute. There are much older female siblings who should be the "women of the house" if no parents are available.

I always think it's funny when people insinuate what people are thinking and/or feeling in photos when they have no idea of what they were really thinking. So I'll add my own narrative about the boy's facial expression: He's ticked off because he probably had to take a bath, then he had to dress in or stay in his Sunday clothes, standing perfectly still for this stupid photographer while posing with his stupid sisters, who actually LIKE being dressed up! He was probably threatened with a good hiding with the leather strap if he ruined another take with his squirming, and he can't play with his friends until this is over with! There, how's that for a completely fictional narrative?
