Now, that is special!

I remember as if it were yesterday when my 14yo daughter was perfoming similar antics. Ah, fond memories. She's starting high school this Fall. Geez, I better stop, I'm starting to feel old.

Enjoy this time while you can, Brian. It's golden.

Best,

Michael

Know what you mean about memmories. It seems only a few years back I had two daughters pre-school age. Now, one has graduated college and the other will in two years. For you with younger kids, spend every minute you are able with them. You, and they, will never have regrets.

Steve,
She was actually asleep in that position. Lately this has been one of her napping spots. It seems really uncomfortable to me but I guess to a worn out toddler it isn't so bad.

Thank you all for your comments, she is the last of four (I think ). Having two older brothers and one older sister she is as spoiled as can be and observing her you might think that she planned it that way. It has been said that children are a gift from God, all I can say to that is; what awesome way to bring an indescribable joy into my life!

Jeff,
Thank you, I hope Grandkids come healthy and soon for you!! Her name is Tristen Claire Hawkins, My wife chose the name and it really does fit her personality. I actually drove 1 1/2 hrs out of my way today just to spend 20 minutes with her.

Carlton,
I ma keeping it balanced, here is a picture of her (at an earlier age) checking the tap on some red spruce...

Brian,

Well, she seems to like what she's hearing! I bet that right after the photo she gave your spruce the "little luthier's taste test", too.

Brian,

Great pictures. The first picture got me thinking, thats probably the way I look on a bike since I'm a tad bit overweight well...maybe considerably more than a tad bit

Brian,
Your daughter is a cutie!! I've got two daughters myself. When the time comes, I'd say when they turn 13 or so, you're more than welcome to borrow my Remington Model 1100 shotgun for the first boy that rings the doorbell Colonial Tonwds38554.8012731482

minefields work well, with razor wire, night vision devices, inground sonic detectors and above ground motion and ir detectors and...what tha'... blast those what if dreams... they'll do what they'll do so raise 'em well and guide if you can, for by the time they are ready to step out you can kiss "control" goodbye.

and my little girl is almost 35 and no.1 son is 41, both having made me a grandfather several times over and never even had the courtesy to ask me if it was ok to change my status in life. oldest grand is 14 now whilst youngest is 13 days.
