The Just Posts are Here: Click the Month You Want
It's shiny and pretty
47 hats in the ring:
that was really something,Mad. You rock.
1. Ha! Susie! Perfect!
2. You look JUST LIKE MISS M in the black dress. Like twins.
First, I had to check out your skin: it is flawless. I'm extremely covetous, over here.
I thoroughly enjoyed the perm shot. Did anybody in the 80's and 90's avoid perming their hair at some point? I think not.
And the picture with newborn Miss M. is utterly delish.
i love this walk down memory lane. i have to agree, your skin is lovely.
argh. It won't completely download.
but what I see? I see M. and you. a kaleidoscope of you.
So glamorous in the yellow dress! And so completely like yourself in the plaid.
Hah! LOVE. SEEING. YOU!!!!
you are truly exquisite in the yellow dress.
I love the picture of you in the orange hat, actually. Oh, and the cartoon too. Too funny!
Hey! You look just like a woman I'd like to be friends with.
nice to know you've been fabulous at every stage
LOL you totally did look like Susie.
and you are beautiful
Gorgeous, all of them!
you are adorable - and i love that except for THE PERM you have pretty much had the same haircut since you were four. totally adorable, you.
Just like Susie! Wow. I can really see you in Miss M.
Look how beautiful you are!
Great pictures. Several of my favorite bloggers have done this now. Guess I need to dig out some of my fabulous past hairdos and do the same. (Although you seem to have had a lot more sense hairwise than most of the rest of us.)
Lovely photos, I especially liked your high school photo. I could relate to that.
Almost wordless myself. In a couple of the pictures you look a lot like someone I used to know. Though you're much prettier.
Oh, I love this. And I LOVE LOVE your glasses!
What a fantastic series of photos! And I can't believe how much you look like yourself in that child photo... You've hardly changed that much, you know, except for the haircut. (OMG the Susie comparison is hilarious)
you were 14 in that shot? you were 25 in that shot?
you were 34?
I guess i should have worn sunscreen.
I'd have to hate you if I didn't already love ya.
Wow. That is so fun. And you look so familiar. SO familiar.
Love the walk down memory lane, you look fantastic in all of them.
There's a folk fest pic in there, right? Fantastic. You are utterly yourself, and you do have skin to die for.
Also? The perm? Oh god, baaaaad idea, huh? :-)
lovely.
Running on empty
I loved these!!! You know those two school pictures, where you're wearing the plaid dress/shirt? I SWEAR I had the same outfit, and my hair was exactly the same.
That is fabulous. Thank you.
I loved this!
You and your beautifully fresh face. Gorgeous. And I lost my breath when I saw that sweet little newborn head in your arms.
I'm sure I have a folk festival photo or two that looks much like that one of you.
I think you look like Miss M (or she, you) at 5. Really? Though I know she resembles the Mad Dad.
This post made me smile from ear to ear.
you have the most delicate bone structure. loved this.
and the cuteness of the double shot of the early school photo with the, erm, possibly handcut bangs? i'm dying.
take this for what it's worth, but your face is what the Anne of Green Gables in my mind always looked like...not that pug-nosed Megan Follows.
Did anyone tell you that you look prettier as you add more numbers to your age?
Seriously, you really look much more attractive in the recent photos than the past, ok except for the one in yellow dress - that's unbelieveably pretty.
The haircut you have where you're on the couch in the black dress with spaghetti straps is the haircut I want to be brave enough to get. I'm working up to it. (Thanks for inspiration!)
okay, how gorgeous are YOU? seriously. GORGEOUS.
upon 5th 'reading' what I have is beautiful.
it'll do.
and, that is an impressive 12,000, or so, words.
ps. Bon is right about the Anne thing now that I think of it. weird.
what a lovely set of pictures! you have always been so pretty!
Wow, how beautiful you are.
Oh I reallllllly love this idea. May steal it too (swear we didn't steal your Canadian BlogHer ,,, if only were so clever). You are gorgeous ...
I loved this, too. It's a wonderful idea. And I'll have to chime it to exclaim over your beauty, too.
Mad,
I don't know how i missed this gloriousness. This sheer bounty of gorgeousness.
I love this.
I think we had the same perm.
I agree with beck, I had thought so many of these reminded me of miss M.
Hey! I feel as if I suddenly know you so much better. I've been reading you for a couple of months, but now this! Thanks for sharing. Love your middle school hair, but even it wasn't as big as mine.
That was great! I really enjoyed it. You are fantastically "Mad" at every age and stage.
And no, I'm not going to play. Sorry. :(
Great photos! Susie from Calvin & Hobbes too perfect. Quite a resemblance. (My son looks & acts a lot like Calvin.)
I love the fick of you in that yellow dress. Lovely. Newborn photo is lovely too. I had the same hairdresser at 14. :) JoC
I did mine, grainy though it is.
Show me the glasses. Show me the glasses! SHOW ME THE GLASSES!
What a great sequence of shots, Pretty Lady. You have fantastic eyes.
Who is the mystery man in the Age 25 photo? And is that the Edmonton Folk Festival? The Folk Fest is THE thing I miss about Edmonton. That, and Federally Inspected Meat in my donairs.
