22 years ago today she came along......
My Daughter.
Andi.
*4 years old and she was IMMA.
Andi looked like this everyday at preschool.
I made those crazy head bands for her.
She had them in every color.
They were soft and strechy - no head aches.
This fold up tent was set up in front of the TV.
Her hang out.
Her favorite program was PeeWee Herman.
Andi's Joey Girl.
And of course she could do a mean 'time step.'
NOT!!
Andi's first trip to NYC with Mommy.
Ogunquit Maine....
collecting starfish for the plane ride home.
whew!!!! did they ever stink on the plane!!!
But she was happy.
So I was happy.
We went every summer.
In this shot she is about 13.
Andi, selling lemonade on Marginal Way in Ogunquit Maine.
Here she is with her cousins.
Andi became an accomplished rider.
I was soooo proud.
Here she is on my Hershey.
Here she is on her horse 'Mon Dauphin'
Prince.
She turned out to be a hot shot jumper.
Andi grazing Hershey after a show (with sweaty HAT HAIR).
Do we look happy AND PROUD?
You Bet!
Here Andi is at a horsie affair at ( Trumps )Mara Lago in Palm Beach.
This kid can shop!!
In High School
OMG
It wasn't all fun......
this is Andi's room in high school.
These shots are for BLACK MAIL at a later date.
I hope she has daughters.
And when she rides them about cleaning their rooms...
Yep, you guessed it.
Granny will come to the rescue.
I will show them these pictures,
and Andi will not have a leg to stand on.
Life's a bitch. hahahahah
Andi goes to camp.
But not as a camper,
but a counselor.
A card I made and sent to her at camp.
These are all her favorite stuffed critters.
The kids love her. Frankly how could they not?
She is fabulous in every way.
The apple doesn't fall too terribly far from the tree. hahahaha
She is a good sport and from the looks of it,
will do anything for a laugh.
Andi is going back for her 3rd year as camp counselor this summer.
And after camp she will join the Peace Corp.
She just is graduating college.
University of Miami, with a major in History and a minor in French.
I think she may end up in Haiti (in the Peace Corp).
This is Andi today.
Andi wore this pot on her head all the time when she was a toddler.
hmmmmmm....
I have never done anything in my life
that has made me more proud.
We may not get along perfectly,
but it is how she fits into the world around her
that is most important to me.
And I KNOW she will do fine.
She is good, kind, and caring.
And beautiful.
This is a winning combination.
What is your greatest accomplishment ?
