According to my clock it is still Thursday but only for a few more minutes so I'll have to make this a quick post.
The photo is of my sweet niece Haleigh. It was taken by one of the many guests at a baby shower being held in my honor in preparation for Miss Britt. Those of you that know my family now realize it was nearly 14 years ago.
It isn't the best photo of Haleigh but back in the day not everyone you know was trying to be a professional photographer like it seems they (myself included) are these days.
Anyway the photo. I came across it the other night while looking at old photos with the girls. Seeing that I don't own a scanner I used my phone to take a picture of a picture (I've done quite a lot of that lately) I miss all the girls being this little more and more every day. They are all growing up so fast it sometimes makes my head spin. I mean really...her sisters (the babies in our family) are almost 9. Where did our time together go? I remember Haleigh at the age in this photo. Getting to see her all the time when I went to pick up my girls from grandmas house after work. She has always been the cutest girl. I hate that I haven't gotten to be as close to Haleigh as my nanny Fern was with me, but despite that I am so proud of the beautiful young lady she is growing into.
I sent this picture to her this evening just for giggles. I thought it was a sweet reminder of days gone by. She text back with "throwback Thursday" I loved the phrase and asked her if I could steal it and use it here in the blog. She said she didn't mind so I thought what better picture to start a new series of posts than with the picture of her.

Thanks Haleigh for the inspiration to post this evening. I love you.
And to all of you reading, drag out those boxes of old photos and albums and see what wonderful memories you conjure up from the "good ol days". I would love to hear about them.
PS. It's after midnight now but I'm still calling it "Throwback Thursday" :)
Thanks for reading and have a great up coming weekend
Love you all
