This evening was the annual Father-Daughter Dance that the PTO at our kids' school puts on. This is the third year that Billy took Audrey (her kindergarten year, we didn't buy tickets quickly enough, but now we know). As usual, she came home full of energy and excited to tell me all about the music, crafts, and friends she saw. We have a tradition of taking a photo in front of the fireplace before they leave. As I was snapping the photo this year, it dawned on me just how much Audrey has grown. She has such long legs and is starting to carry herself more like a young woman than a little girl. It is both exciting and terrifying at the same time. I had to go back and look at photos from the previous years. Ironically, Audrey has worn the same sweater over her dress all three years.
First grade: The sleeves on the sweater are rolled up because it was way too big.
Second grade: The sweater definitely looks a bit big. I also must have been warm if she didn't wear tights!
Third grade: The sweater finally fits her perfectly.
You can also see that Audrey is getting taller when you look at where the top of her head is in comparison to the fireplace mantel. I am so thankful her school does a fun event like this and that her daddy likes taking his little girl on dates!
