You look like Grandpa

To all of those who know don't know me really well. My dad served in the military for 34 years.

This morning Kimmie had school picture day. Which I think is totally a horrible day to do school picture day. How can you do pictures on St. Patrick's Day? That being besides the point. I bought Kimmie the cutest camo shirt for school picture day. She can look cute and have green on. I thought that was the perfect compromise. Mainly because her one and only nice green thing she wore for the fall school picture day. So I couldn't have her wear it again. Short side of the story. I bought this really cute shirt. I went to put it on her this morning and the first thing that Johnny says to Kimmie is... "You look like Grandpa." What an amazing ego boost for a nine year old girl to look like Grandpa. Not that she doesn't love grandpa, but still.

I tied a white ribbon in her hair and curled it up pretty. I tried for her to look like a girl and not grandpa. Although no matter how this years spring photos turn out I will always look at them and remember Johnny's announcement, "You look like Grandpa."
