passport

heron just got a passport. & we laugh every time we look at her picture, round as a silver dollar. how is this child mine? having my dad's narrow face, friends would jokingly say to me, "why the long face, ramsdale?" i bet she'll grow out of it, but for now, what darling roundness! what gorgeous chub! she's in the 90th percentile for weight & height (meaning she's heavier & taller than 90% of the babies her age), but i find it impossible to believe that she's not in the 90th percentile for head size, as well (she's 75th)... just gaze upon this glory:


: and check out her mama's first passport :

Oh my goodness, Michelle, these passports are priceless!! You had me chuckling!

I can't wait to hang out in November and hear more about school & vocation & calling -- I'm inspired by your dreaming.

LOVE, beCcA

your daughter seems much more eager to see the world than you did when you were small. Nice work hanging on to that old one.
