Homecoming Court

Just in the last few weeks it has really hit me that my sweet little Lizzy is growing up.  And growing up means she will be moving out.  She will go to college in less than two years.  How did time fly by so quickly?







How will I ever let this dear, funny, creative, energetic child go?  She has been attached to my hip since the day she was born.  This is the stage of parenting I dislike the most. 

And yet, I know.  She will be the next one to spread her wings and fly away and I pray we are giving her strong wings to carry on.  We are very proud of the woman she is becoming.  She is beautiful on the outside, but more importantly, she is beautiful on the inside.

Here she is with her escort for Homecoming Court:



Proud Daddy:

And here she is all dressed up for the Homecoming dance:



Here's her date and yes, she and G4 are still together.  I think she likes him for his brains. 



Or maybe his mom's cool car?



Or maybe his sense of humor?  Lizzy was re-enacting the scene from Titanic.  Maybe G4 hasn't seen the movie?



Or maybe, just maybe, she loves him for his face?



I tried re-enacting the scene from Titanic.  G4 just looked at me like I was a cougar.  I don't get it.

Hey, I have to find ways to laugh or I'll just end up crying over my little girl growing up!

I love you Lizzy!  You'll always be my sweet baby girl!
