Seventeen

 

17 years ago

I had a sweet baby girl

 

 Man time flies

 

and that makes me old

 

 

You always had good hair!

 

 

This was her 3rd birthday

 

 

I had to force her wear a dress for this picture.

It was her tomboy phase

I'm sure there were basketball shorts under there

(I miss bluebonnets)

 

And now you're almost all grown up

 

 

doing things on your own, even if it scares you

 

 

humoring your mother on occasion

 

 

loving life

 

 

loving family

 

And being so much more than I ever imagined in a daughter.

You are beautiful and I am so proud of you.

Happy 17 my sweet girl.
