13-then

This post is only three weeks late... :( Sorry Ash.

Between my procrastination, my scanner not scanning,

and blogger refusing to upload all the pictures I wanted

to post, this post is roughly 3 weeks in the making.

Because I couldn't upload the old and new pictures at the

same time (what's up with Blogger???) I'm doing a 'then'

post and a 'now' post. And because my scanner is dumb,

the youngest picture I have of Ash is one of her 1yr old pics.

You gave me the best job title I've ever had;

Momma.

Beautiful from birth, you have always had amazingly blue eyes.
You look so much like your dad's 2yr old pictures here it's
unreal. With the exception of the long hair, of course! :)
You still look more like your dad.


Sweet and funny, always quick to smile and laugh.

Amazed by butterflies and all animals, you wanted to
be a vet from the time you were about 3.


Sometimes quiet and introspective-always smart and thoughtful.

The gratuitous snaggle-tooth shot-one of my favorite looks.

Sorry, Ash.

And sorry to my

readers for the blurry shot!

Always liked short-medium hair better than long.

Girlie and tom-boy all rolled into one.

Loves food and all things eating!! ;)

Wonderful big sister-little mother hen.

Beautiful smile, loves to laugh.

Too big, but not yet grown-

almost as tall as me!

I can't believe you are 13.

You were and always will be my first

baby girl. I love you more than any words

could express. I thank God for you everyday.


TTFN,
