Where's Belle?

I remember my Kindergarten class photo.

And I looked EXACTLY like the girl on the back row with the pink headband.

Seriously.

Except I was too short, so I was on the front row.

Seriously.

But while it drives me crazy...her anti-smile because of all of her missing teeth, it just thrills me to see her in this picture.

A Picture of how grown up she is.

A picture of how independent she is getting.

A picture that my baby is a big girl now and doing things I'm not a part of anymore.

A picture of me in what feels like just a few short years ago (25 to be exact!).

A picture of true beauty with the whole world in front of her.

Wow.
