Oh Jo she looks so pretty! It makes me remember my first dance also when I was 12, and my first dance dress:

LOL! Yes, Linda the containers are outside :D Most of snow is melted and or melting away except some of the big drifts left over from the 3 snow storms back to back and the result of plowers! Our temperatures have been in the 40's by day and 30's at night. It rained all last night thru this very early morning. By Friday we will probably hit 50! I've had windows open almost every afternoon now for a good week :D The daffodils have been pushing up for a bout 2 weeks, but no sign of crocus yet. Clumps of Snapdragon 'Black Prince' and still looking good at the base and the Blue Flax, grasses and Bergenia are a pretty contrast to the drab surrounding! I have also found a gazillion or so self-sown Viola, Nigella, Larkspur and Lunaria. As for where I've been I got deep involved for the last 2 months in some new genealogy finds and also doing tons of volunteer lookups. Vera

My daughter's first Walk of Honour

Nekotish, thank you and hugs to your daughter. Until recently my DD was also a CC CRNP in a level 1 trauma ED. There are times when the staff ’takes a moment’ to honor a life just lost in the ER. When she told me about how hard it is when they have worked so hard to save someone and don’t always have the desired outcome everyone wants, I could just cry for them, just as I celebrate those they save. Knowing there are so many awaiting organ transplants, I am always gratified when I hear there are organ donors, even in a time of great sadness, who can perhaps save a life.

What a beauty! (Like her mom.) Wait a few years, and compare your photos... wow! I hope she had a wonderful time. We need the post dance report!

It's still odd for me to see my baby girl in heels!

Oh Sharon, I love that picture of you! The pose is so classic, as are the pearls and everything else. I can't be sure, but it sure looks like a smile is trying to escape from your very proper expression.

Phoebe (my dd) hasn't had her dance yet. It is Friday night. She just wanted to model the dress for me. (again). I will post post dance pics.

She's very pretty. And I love the dress.

(All the girls are wearing strappy sandals to their dances this year -- don't their feet get COLD?)

She is a pretty little thing, Jojoco. Gosh, I didn't know they had dances when they were that young. Seems like every generation our littlun's grow up faster. Is she a 6th grader? Cme to think of it, it just seems like maybe I did have a dance in 6th grade.
Anyway, enough rambling. Your daughter is an absolute doll, and looks so cute and so grown up in that outfit.

I agree, Diane, the next few years are going to be exciting for Jo, with that beauty for a daughter!

Jo, she's gorgeous, I hope she has a wonderful time.

Renee, I often wondered about those open toed shoes all year round too, but Jo lives....where?

Jo, she's beautiful! Looking forward to hearing about the dance! Do they have it at the school? My daughter's first dance was in 6th grade, in the gym, decorated by the 6th grade parents, and catered with kid friendly food!

Annie and Renee, around here they wear the open toes year round, through the snow! Mine is 13, nothing bothers her, have to yell for her to take her coat!

Oh Jo what a sweetheart, they grow up so fast. Seems like yesterday Meredith was going to her first dance and now she in 4th year university....wish we could put them in a bottle and keep them little forever. Oh wait that means they live here for ever......I take it all back!

Let us know how it went!

And the shoes -Open toes, no stockings, all year round in all weather!!! We've become our own mothers!
