I have to admit I did not take this image. It is a Selfie my granddaughter Shaelyn took but I played a bit in Photoshop with it. Shaelyn turned 16 on April 23rd. Where did the years go? Did I tell her all the things that my Heart hoped to over the years? Does she know just how much I Love her? Soon she will be off searching for her future in this big world. Of course I worry for her - it's not such a 'safe' world out there these days. When I look back to how things were when I was 16 - I almost wish we could go back. No being so consumed with Social Media, yes there was bullying but it was not Cyber in nature. I just want for her to be safe, happy and to be able to pursue a future that will allow her some Artistic Freedom. She already is interested in Photography and Media Arts. She has my Heart, just like my daughter does - us 'girls' have to stick together ! :)

Such a gift to have grandkids to watch spread their wings. I agree about easier times, but she will show you the ingrained lessons she picked up from you on the way.

Let her go. Don't hold her back. But give her the best camera, you can afford and let her come back with the pictures of her life.
