This is Sofie at about four and a half. Gorgeous, right? And I hardly did her justice. She actually prefers to be smiling in portraits but I haven't drawn one of those and frankly I am not a fan of drawing or painting teeth so I avoid them altogether!
As of yesterday, Sofie is now 8 years old! I can't believe it. She is the daughter of Kristen, one of my oldest and dearest friends. I feel like it was only a couple of years ago when I held her as a tiny newborn baby, eyes like saucers, with her delicate little hands and tiny tulip mouth. Kids help you keep track of how fast time is moving. Not having kids, I fall into the fantasy that I am still that young, single chick in my twenties living in Hollywood. Then I see my friends' kids and the spell is broken ... but it's worth it.
Happy Belated Birthday Sofia! Love you Sweetheart! Auntie Lulu
