Looking Back!

Came across this picture on my computer the other day! Oh how I love this picture!

 

 Those chubby cheeks, wind-swept hair, and squinty little eyes that are obviously tyring to keep out the sun (but tend to be a bit squinty anyways.)

 

She is my little girly-girl and comrade in this house full of boys! I love watching her grow up and...

 I get her! She loves what I loved when I was her age!

 

One of the things that I am most excited about is introducing her to all the books I loved as a young girl! She actually brought home her first reading books for homework today and is so thrilled!

 

And yet, I look at this picture and I'm reminded that she will never be this little again! Happiness and sadness all rolled up into one big emotion of gratitude!
