Breathtaking Beauty...

Okay, so I know I'm totally biased because I'm her mother... but isn't she just beautiful? It just makes my whole heart just sigh in amazement... she's really not my baby anymore... growing up so very, very fast ... with the personality to match... Just in case anyone out there thinks I'm going down some Jon Benet-esque path (which I'm not!)... the whole dressing up thing was Beth's idea... We're going through a phase where Beth likes to wear things around her neck... feather boas, leias, scarves, necklaces... sometimes all at once! And today she was in the mood to wear her tutu and fairy wings ... which it totally out of character for her... She's not a big fan of playing dress-ups (despite my enthusiastic encouragement)... Normally if she puts something on it lasts all of 5 minutes before she wants to take it off... But today, she played in her fairy wings all afternoon... I even had my own real life laundry fairy today as she helped me take in the laundry (in the same manner as yesterday... yes, I'm such a slave driver, Thao... but I like to think of it as being creatively inventive in a productive manner :))... All in good fun!
