First Day

Lex and Shi went back to school today.  I'll admit it, I have fun following Syddall family tradition, and snapping a dozen or so pictures as they head out the door for that first day.  The girls, however, like to play that it's pure misery to get their picture taken.  Someday they'll thank me.

 Lex is simply a t-shirt and jeans girl.  She occasionally purchases more "fashion forward" clothing items, but they usually end up hanging in her closet until one of her sisters borrows them.  This is the LAST first-day-of-school picture she will ever have taken.  I can't believe how fast time has flown.  

Wow.  A Senior.

 Shilo is a fashionista.  She has the biggest variety of clothes (including a few hand-me-downs from her two older sisters), lots of accessories (shoes and earrings are her favorite), and regularly changes up how she wears her hair and make-up.  She's excited to start her Sophomore year.
I totally remember when I was that age.  Just the other day.

Even though they are very different, these two girls are beautiful and AMAZING.  

I am such a lucky mom.

(Shilo asked why I kept taking pictures of them as they got in the car.  "Just for fun," I told her.  I could sense they were not feeling it.)

Good-bye, girls!  Have a great day!
