🎃Happy Halloween Birthday to Caitlin!🎃

 

Happy Halloween Birthday, Caitlin! (Today she’s 23!)

There has always been something a little bit magic about my first grandchild Caitlin, from her Halloween birth (with hospital staff in costume!) to the wonder and awe of watching her come into the world. I held her when she was only moments old, and she looked directly into my eyes with those gorgeous baby browns. I made this slideshow for her 10^th birthday. I note that YouTube has buried it, closed the comments and not allowed sharing, no doubt due to the fact it shows pictures of "minors". But she's 23 now! I guess any picture of a child is is considered somehow  taboo. 

The future anchor of CTV News?

My eldest granddaughter, Caitlin. I watched her get born, and now she's thirteen years old and sitting at the anchor's desk! No doubt her career aspirations will take many twists and turns - but she does look great up there.

A spooky little girl like you: happy birthday, Caitlin!

Just a horse, just a girl. . .

But not just any girl.

 It's the next generation. . .

. . . of horsy little girls.

Ride on, Caitlin!

The Turkey Song: encore, encore!!

I lost the Turkey Song! I posted it, but I can't seem to find it in my old posts, even though it's listed under Oct. 22.

So here it is again: my granddaughter Caitlin in her YouTube debut. Who needs that little Jackie Whatsername anyway? Brava, encore!!
