So I have this thing with people I love, where, because I love them already, and I love little kids in general, I often think, "How cool would it be to know so-and-so as a kid (or sometimes just as a younger version)!" I used to always wonder what it would be like, for example, to go to high school with my mom and dad as my peers… or to play with kid-versions of my current friends as, say, an assistant camp-counselor (i.e. not a disciplinarian) for some summer program. Wouldn't that be the best?! I could tell them that one day they would grow up to be wonderful people, and know I was telling the truth. Plus - just think of all the cute stories I could tell them about themselves when I got back to reality!
In any case, Ellie looks so much like kid-pictures of Adrianne that sometimes I think, there but for fortune this could BE Adrianne as a kid! But knowing a little-Adrianne has extra significance for me because it would also be like a chance for me to reciprocate all the love, support, and care-taking that she gave me as the-most-wonderful-older-sister-in-the-world when I was young. It’s a weird thought, I know, but makes it that much more fun to play with Ellie. =)
Anyway - enjoy the pics! Isn't she adorable?!

Adorable is right! And incredibly photogenic; there's not one bad pic in the lot. What a sunny child.
Ellie is so adorable! She looks just like her mom... and so happy, too. You should put more pictures of her up. ^_^
