My little brother was almost three years old while I took him to the post office in our town for a first time. As I fill out my return receipt form, my brother looked around at another people in line. I noticed him staring at the pictures on the wall. “Who is the people on the wall?” he asked. I explained patiently him that they were bad people that the police were searching for them. My brother looked up at me with the sweetest face but asked curiously, “Then why didn’t they keep them when take their pictures?” I was complete without words.
