My cousin Shell and I...we both took dance lessons. =) Too cute!
This is back when we were little Angels...
Yes, I had huge hair like everyone else did! =)
Like Mom says "Its all bout the fro"
This has got to be the gayest picture of me. Leopard
pants and who knows what sweatshirt. But I love this
pic...because its just meee! =)
Awwww...He does love me! <3
We had just brought Dallas home from the hospital.
I absolutely love this picture.
I loooove my Mommy! =)
And here we have me and my cousin Les!
Ha can you believe it? LES! lol
So I'm with Heather...I love pictures. I love looking back when I was younger and remembering the memories I'll never forget. Each picture says something to me. Each one has a special place in my heart. I can't wait until I am older and look back on the pictures of me now from prom and such. This was the good times...when I was younger, you smile at the picture. This was the good times when I had no worries. This was the good times when it seemed as if I had the world. I look back and smile at the memories....
I realize now that I'm growing up. Almost 18...I'll be an adult. I don't know that I'm ready, everyone tells me I've been ready since I was about 4 years old. But I'm really starting to realize that childhood is almost over for me. But I can still have fun like children do. Infact I went with a friend to Ashville Park the other day and played on the playground. It was neat to swing on the swings and slide down the slide. We raced from the concrete to the swings. I felt like a little kid but it was great. I forgot about all of my problems and just had a good time.
I got home and I was exhausted. This illness frustrates me so much. I can't run and play like I use to. I can't do much of anything without being exhausted. But I have to keep going. I have to try harder than I use to. I pray today will be a good day. I think I am getting a home teacher to help me finish my junior year. Its sad I can't even make it through a day of school. But I keep praying and maybe someday I can run like a kid again. =)

I must say, that was a dirty trick! That first picture, right off the bat, threw me for a loop. I didn't know whether to smile or to tear up!:):( Warn me next time. They say that a smell is the strongest memory trigger, but a picture IS worth a thousand words, and believe me, you had a thousand words back then! There was never a dull moment with you around. You were always ready to do anything at the drop of the hat! I am sure you can still make any day fun and memorable for yourself and for others. It can be hard to have a fun time when you don't feel good, but just keep yourself surrounded by good friends, family, church, and the occasional philosophical old woman, and you'll always have someone to laugh with, or at the very least, someone to laugh AT!:)I am so glad you are a part of my memories, an I hope we have many more chances to make many more. Love you, Miss you
Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Too cuuuute!!!!! :) I LOVE THEM!!!!
I am glad you had fun at the park! I still go and play at the park as well. Never stop playing and having fun! So many "grown-ups" forget to have fun (or sadly, they don't have time due to working and all- which certainly sucks). Anyway, always try and remember that childlike feeling 'cause it can get you thru the hard days!! :)
I'm sorry you are having hard days as well w/your illness! That stinks, too, 'cause I know there is stuff you want to do, but can't, and it stinks not feeling good and feeling tired. I feel tired very easily myself. I know how you feel.
Hang in there! There will be better and easier days!!!!
Love ya!!!
Little Stephanie, Dallas, Michelle and Les....how sweet. I remember those days!! I'll never forget your mom bringing Dallas to church the night he came home from the hospital! Memories are truly great gifts. Sometimes, it's all we have to get us through another day! You know we're all praying for you and hoping you'll have much brighter days to come and that this illness won't get you down!
Keep smiling!
I love the pictures the good times!
But I know there are many more good times to come! I have faith that before long you will be able to run like the wind!!!
