my granddaughter emilia is four and a half years old today. i post a photo of her on the 28th of every month - her 'monthly birthday'.

still with her butterfly makeup and in her princess dress that she wore for a carnival party at her kindergarten, she is now playing with grandma in her own room at home ...

happy birthday, little mouse !!!

That is such a pretty costume! She is really looking so grown up! I am glad that you take monthly birthday images. They will be something to treasure for both you and her. If I ever have any grandchildren, I would like to do the same.

@Elaine Hancock: thanks for this lovely comment, elaine! i wonder how long emilia allows her monthly pictures to be taken, but in the meantime i will do so relentlessly ... ;-))
