Favorite shot of my favorite girl

I just love this one. Taken in April of 2009. Must have had a warm spring that year. 

Prior to all the gray. Prior to the knocked out front tooth. About half her life ago.

So weird, time.

Eleven years old today. One one. 

Wow. 

Almost a teenager. No cake this year. Although, maybe I'll feel bad and get some on the way home.

Here's to eleven more, Bellissima!
