13/365 January 13, 2009 "Little Pink Snowsuit"

This is my niece Hallie. Mom was watching her today and she wanted to go outside and Hallie loves loves loves walking in the snow.

Now our Hallie is adorable, she is so sweet and I am sure this blog will eventually be filled with many pictures of her. However for this picture, Hallie is not the main focus - the little pink snowsuit she is wearing is.

You see that little pink snowsuit used to belong to a very small girl named Jennifer. Yes that's right MY now 20 year old Jennifer. I bought it for her when she was about 18 months old and when she grew out of it, mom tucked it away for the next little girl baby. But no one ever expected it to take 19 years for a little girl to grace us in the family. We had 3 boys and no little girl. So the snowsuit stayed in the closet. Until this year, when mom fished it out and lo and behold it was still like brand new and fit Hallie to a T.

So there it is...one snowsuit, 2 little girls and almost 20 years in between. It honestly brings a tear to my eye.
