"The first time I meant my BFF, she had in toal, a beautiful little 2 year old in a Yellow coat and hat. When she removed them, I saw this light blond hair, and then she turned and I wondered (to myself) "What Mother would put BLACK eye make-up on a 2year old?". On a closer look, to my surprise, no make-up, it was just the natural, unusual beauty of this little girl "Denise". So many memories come flooding in of a little pre-schooler, with her big purse full of her Important mail, etc., a sleep over with Dawn and my daughter when she was 4 years old(because "Dawn always gets to do that." Feeding the ducks at the old pond at Aspen Grove. We just had so many good times while Dawn and Julie were in school. So much love goes with you sweet Denise. "
