GROWING UP

Today we celebrated my grand daughter Stacie's 23rd birthday. It seemed like it was just yesterday we celebrated her joining our family. Where does the time go. 

Here is a photo taken when she had made her first cloth doll and I displayed it at a doll luncheon we had in Mt. Vernon Washington. She was only about 8 at this time. Since she was in school and could not attend our luncheon I put her photo next to the doll she made. Needless to say she was so very proud of that doll as was I of her.

Last spring  Stacie gave birth to her own real live doll Emma Sophia. Soon now Stacie will be returning to complete her schooling in the medical field. With a baby, school and a part time job she is going to be one busy mama but that is what happens when you grow up. We all know it will be worth it in the long run. Happy Birthday Stacie!
