growing up too fast

While doing my niece's senior pics this weekend, I realized that all my girls are growing up way to fast. Kristin (my niece) will graduate in 2 months, my Becca will graduate next year and my baby girl is not going to be a baby much longer. this makes me a little sad.... okay, a LOT sad!!!

While I'm no professional at photography, I don't think I did too bad of a job... what do you think???

R.I.P Corey....

My first love... Corey Haim. Oh how I had the hugest crush on him when I was a young girl. Posters everywhere. I don't think you could see an inch of wall, not even a speck. I watched his movies faithfully. Probably could have recited THE LOST BOYS from heart. I had pretty much convinced myself that if we could ever meet, he would be the man I would marry......





But life moves along and we grow up and childhood crushes aren't so prevelant. Yet as an adult, everytime I saw a picture of Corey or watched a movie with him in it I remembered a childhood "love" and a young girl's dream...

Today, as I came into work, I was going thru my normal morning routine and saw the tragic news.... COREY HAIM, FOUND DEAD @ 38 ... APPARENT DRUG OVERDOSE

I am deeply saddened by this and will even admit that I've shed several tears today. I don't want to read anymore stories, look at anymore pictures, watch anymore clips... I want to remember that giddy feeling from my childhood.

Too soon life is taken away from us and too easily temptation befall us. Rest in Peace my dear Corey for you will always hold a special place in my memories...
