our baby graduates

Where has time gone?  

i remember the day that our little chelsie randa was born.  Papa bill took me and Mac (in our matching wind-suits) to mcdonalds for breakfast.  We were in the room when she was born, i had no idea at 6, how much that moment would change my life.  i did not realize that the little baby girl would grow up to be my biggest fan, my best friend, and a sister that the "trio" could not live without.  i have always taken such pride in my little mini me.  i remember being at every single event she ever participated in.  She always had a big fan club, at her cheerleading, basketball, softball, cow shows, 

and any other event she had.  

i think we all took great pride in making her succeed.  being 6 years younger then me i always felt the need to protect and guide her.  sometimes i was like another mom, and other times i was a cool big sis.  but whatever roll i have had or will have in her life, i know that she will always make us proud.  she is the best part of the family bc we all love her the most.  she is OUR baby and we expect great things from her.  

 today like all other big days in her life, we all shared a huge sense of pride.  she graduated from her favorite school with a degree in business.  it just seems like yesterday she was graduating from kindergarten with her little blue gown and now she is all grown up and going into this crazy world.
