My Baby ...

... is no longer a baby at all. She'll be starting middle school tomorrow. How can that be? She was only 3 years old when we moved to North Carolina a few years ago. Now she'll be 13 in just 3 1/2 months. I can't believe how the years just fly by.



When I look at this picture it occurs to me how very much she looks like her father ... I love her quirky little smile and the way her eyes squinch up when she flashes that smile... She doesn't like either of these features, but to me they represent who she is. I even had to edit out some pimples! Yep, those teenage years are coming fast! Three teenagers ... Lord help me!
