To Cheer Me Up

Today has been a gray, dreary day, and I have been unusually and unaccountably blue.  So I've been looking at pictures and felt like sharing a few of my baby girl, that always cheer me up.

Me with Eler Beth when she was about 4-1/2 years old.

Eler Beth's kindergarten picture, age 5.

 

Fifth grade, age 10 (almost 11).  I can't believe how grown up she looks compared with last year.

Your daughter is beautiful!  So is her smile which I'm sure lit up your face when you saw this photo as much as it did mine.  Catch my smile back again and pass it on........Hugs to you.   Jeanie

Thanks for checking in on my journal.  My oldest daughter is in 6th grade and I have said the same things you did about how grown up she looks this year.

It is so hard to believe how quickly the time goes and how fast the kids grow up! My baby will be a freshman in high school in the fall; this is so amazing to me. I don't know how we got to this place!!!! she was just born yesterday it seems like.
Eler Beth is a beautiful little girl!
Have a nice weekend.
