She was beautiful when she was born. Of course, i suspect nearly every parent thinks their child is beautiful at the infant stage. But she truly was beautiful.
She has grown up well. She is a successful career woman, She is one of the two best parents my grandson could possibly have. She cares for people and animals.
i was going to wax poetic, or as poetic as i can wax and started a long piece about her growth from those first beautiful days until the current beautiful days. But i decided she wouldn’t appreciate that, and i could always make an error.
So here are some of my memories of my beautiful (inside and out) daughter:
