34 Years?


The other day, I was asked to photograph #1 Daughter Melissa's family. They were all dressed up for an event, the girls in their matching Ralph Lauren dresses! I took tons of pictures, but this one is my favorite. It captures a moment in time of this happy, young family.

Today is Melissa's birthday. Has it really been 34 years since you were born? It seems like yesterday. How time marches on...
Happy Birthday to our "Sweet Melissa!"

  3. How is it that our kids get older yet we stay the same??? I can't figure that out.
    Happy Birthday to your daughter. You did a really good job on that family photo.

  4. Happy Birthday!
    To both YOU and
    Melissa : ) My
    grandma always used
    to buy herself a
    little present on
    my mom and my
    uncle's b-day...
    Since it was also
    a special "b-day"
    for her, as well.
    So, Delores, go
    forth and celebrate
    both you AND your
    precious girl!
    Happy Weekend!

  5. Ok I am in shock. How can a thirty something years old woman have a thirty four years old daughter? Someone has a beauty secret and is holding out on her readers. Happy birthday Melissa! You have a beautiful family. Love the little ladies RL dresses.

  6. What a beautiful family! Yes those years just fly and our babies are all grown up... Your little grand daughters are living dolls... Give them LOTS of giant hugs, you are going to "blink" and they'll be celebrating their 30something birthdays. "Happy Birthday to your beautiful Daughter",

  14. What a sweet little family. I'm sending birthday wishes to Melissa, but you the mother of a 34 year old ~ I'm having a difficult time with that one. You look like you are in your 30s. And I mean that sincerely! ~ Sarah

  16. Hi Delores,
    You had your daughter when you were what, 13? Time flies doesn't it? Your daughter and son-i-law look very happy and your grandbabies are so adorable! I love their matching dresses, my mom used to do the same thing w/me and my two sisters, and I did with my two girls. They loved it but sadly won't let me dress them anymore!
    Happy Birthday to your daughter, have a great weekend.
    XO
