A Baby Girl is Born...

Quote for the Day:
“One thing they never tell you about child raising is that for the rest of your life,
at the drop of a hat, you are expected to know your child's name
 and how old he or she is.”
~Erma Bombeck

Twenty-six years ago today, a very special person was born...my daughter, Erin.   The problem with this fact is this...I don't know where the time has gone.  How is it that she can possibly be almost as old as I am!   (Well, technically, I'm 29...but she getting pretty darn close.  In fact, pretty soon she'll be older than me!)

Come along with me on a trip down memory lane...

Yeah...that's a jolt for your eyeballs, I know.   Sorry!  
 

She's been a "daddy's girl" from day one...
 

Being introduced to her older brother.  Yeah...she wasn't impressed, as you can tell.  LOL


About 3 months of age...

 Nine months...


She was ALWAYS up to some kind of mischief...
 

And did I mention...she's daddy's girl???
 

Preschool...


Kindergarten...


Wasn't she CUTE!!!  :)  And, yes, thank you...I did make that blue velvet dress for her!  :)



And now, we will fast-forward to the day we took her off to college...(because all the pictures between kindergarten and college are sitting in shoe-boxes, completely unorganized!!)


Oh...did I mention...daddy's girl???



Erin becomes a mom, herself...and dad's right there with his baby girl!


College graduation...



And last, but not least...2 months ago at Thanksgiving time holding her friend's son...



She's a beautiful young lady, inside and out!   I love her dearly and am proud to call her my daughter!

Happy 26th Birthday, ERIN!!!
