Pretty velvet dress,
pink satin buttons. Dancing
in the driveway. Love.
Running from mommy.
Not so fast! Scraped knees follow.
Learning to let go.
Belying the myth.
No worries, hugs & kisses
next (after photo!).
Cousin's new go-kart
NEVER. No helmut's enough.
No! *sigh* ok, ONCE.
[We have a new fancy computer without any photo tweaking programs on it, so no fancy drawn-in arrows, but his cousin's new go-kart is parked on the sidewalk in the background. He was SO excited I let him ride on it (yes, with a helmut) but they were going Too Fast! Head trauma! Broken clavicles! I'm well past the risk adverse stage and into full fledged muttering/hyperventilating paranoia. Though I did already warn him he's not getting one. Best crush those dreams early.]
Skinned knees aside, she's adorable. There's a nice Edwardian quality to that dress that's right up my alley.
