When I was a teenager I found box of baby girl clothes tucked away in the hallway closet. I asked my mother who they belong to but before she could respond I already knew the answer. Those baby clothes had been tucked away since I was a baby. As the oldest and only daughter my mother kept those clothes assuming her next baby might be a girl. But four boys later those clothes were forgotten.
When I came to France I brought my baby clothes with me. Chelsea wore them and now Olivia is wearing them too.
How lovely

Precious. Sentimental value? Priceless.

I love that. Somehow you knew baby girls were in your future.

Olivia has the cutest head! She looks like a doll and the dress looks as if it is holding up well.

Chère Corey,
How absolutely adorable and special; perhaps Olivia will also have a daughter or, granddaughter and will be able to wear this same sweet "robe".
It is interesting, I am late logging onto email; as you know I always enjoy your lovely blog. But, I also peeked at FB and a photo from years ago popped up of "Baby Ella" (my now 14 year-old granddaughter) who is wearing my dress (from a 1,000 years ago!) with the doll from my Grandmother Ella.
Such precious memories and such strong reminders of how our love and loved ones continue to be a part of our lives.
Bon dimanche
PS, I'll email you the photo :)
Grandma Ella

So very sweet!
I had one dress that my mother saved and a picture of me in the dress. I love that I now have a picture on my wall of myself in that dress and then my daughter in the same dress. No grand daughter, but maybe some day a great grand.
