Saturday, 24 April 2010 -- Day 125 (138)

Tonight is prom.....it has arrived at last. Mackenzie looks so beautiful. All her planning and preparation have paid off. I hope all the pictures we took this afternoon and this evening will do her justice. Despite my joy at seeing my baby all grown up and sparkling, I have an underlying feeling of moroseness b/c I can't share all this w/ Mom. I know she would've enjoyed the Grand March, seeing all the beautiful dresses and delighting in seeing how Mackenzie and all her childhood friends have grown up. I would've pointed out the girls and boys who came to different birthday parties and who were in various dance recitals and on little league teams w/ Mackenzie. But Grand March is over, and I need to try to get some sleep before post-prom begins at midnight. I'll try to write more tomorrow night when Prom 2010 has passed.
