Sunday before breakfast Katie and Jack were playing in Katie's room. The mess was so ginormous that after breakfast I had to go moderate clean up. When we were finished Katie and I were taking all of her dirty laundry out of her closet. I found some clothes that were supposed to be buried in the back, on the floor. These were special items either of clothes that I wore as a child or clothes Katie wore as a baby.
Only a handful of people will recognize the dress in the picture. However it was a dress that I wore as a child one of the times my father set up studio in our home and took family photos. So the rest of the Sunday morning story goes like this. As I was hanging up the clothes that Katie should not have been playing with. She asked me if she could wear the dress. I told her it probably did not fit here and that it was a very special dress. As I was about to tell her that it was a dress I wore when I was little like her she interrupted me and said, "But Mommy, I'm Special."
There was nothing more I could say except go get my camera, help her put the 30 something year old dress on and let her smile for the camera. As she was smiling for me she stopped me and asked if she could wear her tiara. As in Katie's own style she had to add her own flare. Enjoy!!!

Oh my goodness, Chels -- she looks so much like you in those pictures. I'm sure that, not only would Granda Mom-mom would be proud, but that Dad is too.
