Last week this beautiful baby turned 18. I'm taking the development better than I expected. Mostly because she has grown into a beautiful young woman, doing wonderful things and we couldn't be prouder of her. Even still, I thought I'd enjoy a little walk down memory lane.
Same big smile with cousin Julia.
Clark and Bethany are about 20 months apart.
Are you seeing the Greta resemblance yet? It's crazy!
Enter Elinor.
With cousin Parker.
Sometimes I look at Greta and could swear I am raising Bethany over again.
My favorite Bethany expression-- we still see this one from time to time:)
At Tessa's funeral. I have always loved this picture of Bethany.
This is how Elinor has looked at Bethany for pretty much all of her life.

The day she got her first violin.
Beauty and the Beast was the first play she was in with Bluffdale Arts Council. I am about a week from giving birth to Faith.
Enter Faith.
Those eyes.
An early Foxy Ladies meeting.
One of my favorite pictures of the three oldest kids. This is also the age that I started making this blog, so her life if fairly well documented from this point on.
She has been such a happy soul to have in our home.
Happy 18th birthday, Bethany. We love and adore you and you have been an absolute delight to raise. You are a joy to us! We love you.
