My Baby Girl~





Diandra recently sent these pictures of herself to me. She took them goofing around while waiting in a parking lot for an appointment. I love my baby girl!

She is going to kill me. But, I just had to share! Don't you agree?

This summer has been a little hard one for us. After school and dance is over, she becomes quite bored... and then grumpy! GRRRR! Being that she works at the dance studio, it is shut down for the summer after recital. Unfortunately, during school, she has a job and is very busy with it and school. While everyone was getting a summer job, she was really busy during the month of June due to dance. Her dad tells her to just enjoy her summer and do fun things... she needs and likes to be busy. Her dad also worries about her wearing herself out burning the candle at both ends. I have to agree. So, even though this summer has been a tough one for her and I am getting more and more chewed on, I have really enjoyed our evening walks and worry that when school and dance starts back up, I am going to lose my walking Buddie. That makes me sad because it has been our time to share, compare and bounce thoughts off onto one another. I have also dragged her to things that I really enjoy doing. She goes kicking and screaming, but once we are there and my nerves are shot, she really does enjoy herself. If she would just listen to me....

  3. Angela Marie your Diandra is a beauty and I love the black and white photos.
    Enjoy your time with her and then enjoy watching as she blossoms and grows even more beautiful as she gets back to school and back into her dancing. There is nothing quite like the time spent with our daughters.

  5. I love that you and your daughter are so close. She is a beautiful young woman. I remember being her age and not wanting to sit still for a moment. Afraid that life was passing me by..LOL
    School will soon start again, and she will be busy... I wish I had her energy.

  10. Diandra is a natural beauty. She also has an inner beauty that shines through and makes her stand out wherever she is.

    I don't get to see her often but really enjoy being in her company.

    Love to you both
