Welcome on my J of today's ABC Wednesday,
Today is J from Youth (in dutch youth is called : J eugd) for a change this wednesday a bit personal J's so I 'll let you meet hereby my dad JAN, my dad passed away in december 2003 . My mother JACOBA and last but least a picture of 'myself'': JOANN
Above Left: Meet my dad Jan,
Right photo: Dad Jan was happy to marry my mother Jacoba

Left: JoAnn at younger age-Right: My mom Jacoba, in her youth
And? Do I look-a- like my mom here?:) and to answer all questions about my looks "YES" I am a very serious girl/woman, life is very serious while you are youngh you know, I was a inside-myself 'kind of child', I've always been interested in photography, because my dad was a fanatic photographer.
My Dad: Jan and my mother Jacoba gave birth at 3 girls and 1 boy, I am the youngest of the totall 3 girls , my parents called me Johanna, and my given nickname was either 'Josje' or 'Joke',( I like to change nicknames, once in a while) but since 1980 I listen to the name JoAnn. Are you still interested? haha!

My son's name is Jan as well, he hated it when he was small and tried to change it many times,but everyone new him as that.I also have a friend that lives in the Netherlands that his name is Jan, I know you pronounce it different than here. Being German it is a typical Dutch name is it not?
A Wonderful J Post!
Joann nice family history, thanks for sharing. This is really nice photo of you (you are so serious, lol, but I can see happiness), and it is nice photo of your mother. Thanks for sharing again, really enjoyed. Anna :)
Happy to meet you and your family. A very nice choice for the letter J.
