LITTLE FLOWER CHILD....

She was such a sweet little girl with pink cheeks & smiles for anyone who would look her way. Imagine my surprise when Friday night I saw this buxom beauty for the first time in years!

Michelle, Amanda and me!

Michelle and I became friends in 8th grade in Bangor, Maine. Somewhere between Sophmore and Junior year, she moved back to her home town in Ipswich, Ma. After school, I moved down there as well, and stayed several years (living with her family at times) and became an aunt to the kids. Later in years, though we kept in touch, visits were far and few between. We used to call Amanda "Our little Flower Child", and I still think of her this way!

Amanda is getting a car after grad.....and hopefully will take me up on my offer to come visit! I am so happy for this reconnection. Saturday night we all stayed home and watched movies and Mandy cuddled on the couch with me, just like when she was little. She is still made out of the sweetest stuff!

Proud Mum & Make-shift Auntie

Unforunately, this came out a little blurry....but that's OK...it hides the wrinkles!
