yesterday Lila turned 19

  Yesterday our firstborn turned 19.  I'm pretty sure that makes me... ummm ... yes, OLD!  It was fun to go in search of the best gift for her.  May I mention: don't forget great things can be found not only on eBay, but at the local pawn shop.  We got her a Sony camera.  She loves taking pics.  She's a true artist.  I love the things she creates... food, art (drawings, paintings), clothes... everything!  She's amazing.  I love the feeling she puts across in her writings.  I'm anxious to see her new photo creations.
