I am going to cry….

June 18, 2009

Today my baby girl graduates 8th grade.  I am just so amazed at how far my baby girl has come.  When I delivered Sidney in January of 1995, I knew my life was just beginning.  I knew that every emotion I would ever feel again would be different.  When I cried, it would not always be a sad cry.  I would cry because I was happy, sad, shocked, overwhelmed or proud.
Well tonight when I cry, it will be because I am proud.  I am so proud of my girl Sidney!  I know how much she dislikes school, but she made it.  The anticipation of her entering high school has me biting my nails and begging her to stay in 8th grade, even though I know it’s not possible.  Sidney will be entering into the culinary program at school and I could not be happier (neither could she, I swear I didn’t push it on her.).

I just had to share my excitement with you, and thought I’d share a picture of my beautiful girl.

Baby S…..

This precious little girl came to visit me today, and I have to tell you that the first thing I thought was she’s so precious, but the second thingI thought was Daddy needs to take off his shirt.  I’ve been dying to photograph a naked baby on their Daddy’s tattoo’d arm.  Mom had some pretty cool tattoo’s too!  Made for some really awesome pics.
