3.5

Elizabeth Mary Shaffer turns three and a half tomorrow (3/28/08). Since the family rarely sees the little bird I thought I'd share a few recent photos of the apple of my (and Laura's) eye. She's growing up fast and sturdy (3'6", 38.5lbs.). She's a fast and furious talker when the mood strikes. She's plenty coordinated and fiercely competitive. She's strong-willed and as stubborn as her Pennsylvania Dutch grandmother. She likes chicken noodle soup and choco chip mint ice cream. She watches Sesame Street and enjoys that old Joe Jackson number, Is She Really Going Out With Him.


Elizabeth and her classmates: Jonah, Davis, Francesca, and Nicholas

Great photos of Liz and friends, Bill—quite a crew. Elizabeth is growing up fast. Well, they all are. Look at Hunter and Hope. They’ll be teeners in no time. As for teeners, Will graduates from high school in June. He was Elizabeth's age about 10 minutes ago. Then you have Thatch way out there on the other end. Hard to believe he's flirting with forty, or is he forty--and John Brown not too far behind... Then there’s our generation, now of false teeth and remade knees. In 6 months I’m picking up my 1st social security check. When I get it I’m making a down payment on a double-wide. So let’s have more shots of the youths, before they get old.

Time is flying past thats for sure. I loved seeing these pictures of Elizabeth and her mates, all so fresh and beautiful. Elizabeth has a direct straight forward gaze that is so compelling, and what lovely hair! Hard to believe she was the baby with the electric fuzz.
