Father daughter dance

I ran across this unpacking, and thought I'd share since everyone liked my description of the father/daughter dance. I made the dress. It just so happens that recently I found the ribbon that edges the sleeve in my bag o' ribbons and thought it looked familiar, and then I saw this! This is me before I learned how to smile with my mouth open (which wasn't until late high school I believe). I look like MRT's sister with those glasses too.

I hope you take it the right way if I say you're adorably dorky! You look like someone I would have been friends with.

That brought a much needed smile to my generally irritable sourpuss face right now.

I was too shy to really be anyone's friend at that age.

This is the BEST POST EVER!

You are now the desktop image on my computer.

Churlita, aw, thanks. You mean I'm not adorable now??

MRT - because I mentioned you? You've got to be kidding me if you have me on your desktop. I guess you could indeed call me your long lost sister. That you found through blogging. Ha, that's a great story.
