The very essence of Fran. Beautiful from the inside out with that very fact etched across her face.
We spent the day making her ready for prom, thanks to a couple of great friends who did the hair and nail bits I’m no good at.
I hope her evening has gone as she hoped and deserved. It was a joy to try to make it special for her. She looked like a fairytale.
She is almost grown up.
Life is about to change. New school, a job, a qualification, autonomy in her life.
I only understood recently what a joy it becomes to watch that happen. How easy it is to see chicks fledge. I thought I would be sad.
It has to be said though, I watched her all day today and I saw this little girl all through it.
You are beautiful Fran. Today and every day. From the inside out.
Ohhhh you. Loved this, smiled and nodded all the way through to the end and then WHOOMPH tears. Big kiss. She looks utterly, utterly beautiful and so elegant.
Thought prom was American. When did it start overhere?
Dunno. But prom it is. Maybe having ‘balls’ got too naughty 😉
Oh merry, she looks so joy-filled! It does a mama’s heart good, no?! Wonderful to have these moments 🙂 open doors and wings to fly, that’s what we need to give them …. Big {{hugs}} Merry.
Stunning Merry. You have done a good job! I’m now crying, imagining F at the same age. (I blame the hormones.) xxx
Molly is blaming her hormones, but what’s my excuse for sobbing at this blog post? Beautiful x
She looks so grown up, hope she had a wonderful time 🙂
