My teenager

Once upon a time, long, long ago, a little girl was born.  She was the cutest little girl with no hair, and she loved to sleep, and as it turns out, suck only on her tongue.

This caused quite a few problems, but after spending three days in the children's hospital the little girl was finally sent home with her parents.  All the neighbors, family, and friends came to visit the new girl.    Everyone loved the new girl.  She was very happy and loved being around people.

The little girl grew (but not her hair) and grew.  She loved the water.

 Preferring to be under it...

She was a very quiet girl in the beginning because she sucked on a pacifier that she only removed from her mouth when eating or when she had something important to say.  She and her favorite doll, Molly, went along through life loving it and all the people around her.

As she grew she discovered new things.  She found that she loved mermaids like her sister and playing Barbies.

 

She liked dancing, and playing pretend, and wearing dress up clothes.

 

She liked sports of all kinds

 and standing on her head.

She got rid of the pacifier and sucked her thumb instead.

She enjoyed making funny faces like her Aunt Kelly.

and mugging for the camera like her cousin Gabby

And as she grew through the years and discovered new things, she also grew into a caring, kind, funny, loving
