“A portrait of my child, once a week, every week, in 2013.”

Lillian: You can’t tell in this close-up, but you’re playing with your doll from Grandma and Grandpa that you named “Baby Bea”. You have been lavishing love and attention on her, and it just proves to us what a sweet and loving girl you are, and what an excellent big sister you’re going to be!

There were so many different portraits of Lillian this week that just show off her wonderful personality. It was very hard to select “The” weekly one this time. Here are some of the others that would have worked just as well:

You are so cute and smart…you always know when I put a hair-bow in your hair, or a hairband or headband. You just.don’t.like.it!! You always always always pull it right out!! This just sums it up right here. 😉

BUT…if I stick it in your hair sneakily while you’re playing, you’ll tolerate it. For a few minutes. Ha ha! Then you always realize it’s there and pull it out. Here are some photos of you happily playing while wearing a hair bow.

You love to play with our yardstick! You carry it around like a staff and have lots of fun with it. We enjoy it too, because we can indirectly measure you. If we can believe our eyes it looks like you’re 35″ tall already!! Such a beautiful tall girl!

In this shot you can see Baby Bea’s head 🙂 And of course your stunning eyes! 🙂

Concentrating on playing with your “figures”. You are such a joy and so full of life and imagination Lillian! We love you!

Linking up with Jodi for the 52 project.
