I Remember When Her Mother Was In Labor
And here she is all graduating from high school n’ stuff!
When her mom gave me the title of Godmother to this great little lady, I never thought so far into our future together. I just enjoyed her moment by moment, and I still do.

1. My husband, who had never met said Goddaughter’s (mostly absent) father, said “Her dad looked like the leader of a cult.” It was either the Bono-like glasses indoors, the slicked back hair, or just the general creepiness, but I sort of had to agree with him.
2. My foundation garment (“Look, Mommy, that lady’s ass is tight.”) actually cut off the circulation to my entire left leg.
and 3. Here’s what Ruby thought about the whole thing:
You can read her mind can’t you?
“It’s way after bedtime, and I graduated in my pants about an hour ago.”
