Awwwwwww.... Now I'm all teary-eyed. What sweet pictures!
I got to hold my baby niece for a looooong time this weekend, and it stirred up all those horrible hormonal impulses and left me in the most nostalgic, emotional mood you can imagine. Now everything sets me off!
That's a _good_ school picture, too! It's always hit and miss with those, that's for sure, but it's so nice when one turns out great. Scary, too, to see one's 'baby' looking all grown up... My girl is still just 8, and she has a couple of little dresses that, when she puts them on, absolutely terrify me! I'm not looking forward to thirteen. She's too much like me for me to not spend her teenage years scared to death. Fortunately, my boy is my eldest, and he's a sensible, mature, sweet little fellow. It's nice to have the easy kid first.
Happy birthday to Jessica, and happy "I gave birth to this wonderful girl!" day to you! Have yourself a piece of cake and some happy tears, sweetie.
