Sweet Child of Mine

This is Jess...


She is...

Smart
VERY Decisive
Loyal
Funny
Artistic
Determined
Set-in-her-ways
Private
Never conforms

This is Jess...


She is...

My Baby
Growing Up
Sprouting Her Wings
Use to be Blond
Has one eyebrow that needs some serious waxing
Loves the term 'hippie'
Apples are her fruit of choice
LOVES Summer
She cuts her own hair
Has the most infectious laugh

I look at that second photo and see the young lady she will become, she is the polar opposite of her older sister and she made sure we knew it...she flat out told us 'I am ME and I am not going to be like Abby, I am going to be like ME!'

Good for you darling...you be like you...I wouldn't want you any other way....

My confession for today: Roots and Wings...

  16. Aw Georgie, she's so beautiful and has so many wonderful characteristics! Of course, she DID leave an apple core in your car, so she's lost points there. Oh, and she lost points because she cuts her own hair. Egads!
