{ little white dress }
This little white dress is old, or I guess I would prefer words like "vintage" or "heirloom" although that conjours up thoughts of me being old and vintage and I really don't feel old or vintage, however, this is my little white dress that I wore when I turned one year old.
No need for me to clarify how old I am now, suffice it to say that this little white dress has been around for a while.
When Natalie turned one, I put her in my little white dress and had her picture taken in it...it never looked so beautiful and new....a heirloom tradition started back then. Stefanie and Melanie turned one and they too wore my little white dress. I had dreams of one day having granddaughters that would wear my little white dress as they turned one year old.
As I said in my previous post on how fast time seems to be speeding along, unbelieveably I am getting ready to see my granddaughters wearing my little white dress as they turn one year old! It's little ruffles and ribbons will be worn by granddaughters yet to come, and great grandaughters after them and on and on...and my little white dress will tell a story of baby girls with button noses and chubby cheeks and twinkling eyes turning one year old.
~Who knew a little white dress could create so many memories~

After an hour in bed sure that I was soooo tired. A hot flash hit and no sleep for me. So I am at the computer surfing and I am so glad I checked for new blog posts.
Precious baby girls all wearing the same dress... special indeed.
