Happy 17th Birthday 'C'!!!!

Our Baby turned 17 today!


Her first haircut
(after it finally quit sticking straight up)

A friend took this picture
at our home in Kansas.

at the kitchen table in Kansas.

Her first glasses.

Losing her first tooth.

Her favorite dress.

This is the child who ran around in tops and underwear at home...or at her grandparents...then she only wanted to wear dresses. The striped outfit above we bought for my oldest daughter, she never wore it. It was in her dresser drawer with the tags still on it when 'C' found it. She was four...she wore it, and wore it...until she was nine (it was a size 4). By the time I got rid of it, when we moved from Washington state, it was missing a couple of buttons. The top buttoned up the front, the bottom had buttons down it too, though they were non-working buttons. I would have to say that was the best money ever spent, it lasted more years than it should have.

Take care,
Sheila

  1. Sheila! What a great post and pictures. A beautiful child and I like to hear of kids actions and preferences as they grow. Strange the wants and desires of each kid. All are different and amazing. We know you (and the grandparents) are proud.
    I keep being reminded that ours was not the only traveling family as the kids grew.
    TAke care and love from up here in North CArolina.
