Prom
Okay, first of all I never went to prom when I was in High School. I was an angsty teen and I hated the whole idea of dressing up and going to spend a magical night with a big group of other teenagers that I couldn't stand most of the time. Yeah, I wasn't a real popular student. So anyway, it's been twenty some odd years since I was in high school and guess what? Not going to prom seems to have not made a big impact on my life. YAY! Then along came Gabby - little miss girly-girl, not an angsty bone in her body. Well okay, maybe one bone but it's a real small bone - probably one that's in her ear or a toe bone or something.

Greasy Spoon
Here's Gabby Saturday a.m. (Photo taken with a cell phone) We all went to the local greasy spoon for breakfast. She got served first so we were all drooling over her delicious pancakes. She felt no qualms about eating in front of us!

Just like siblings
Gabby is close to all my sister's kids. They have pretty much been raised together so they treat each other more like brothers and sisters rather than cousins. Here are a few shots taken of Gabby helping Nathaniel with his homework - I make Gabby and David help with all the math, I mean I DO want him to get a good grade. Plus I don't want to admit to a fifth grader that the math he's doing is waaaaay over my head. I like to keep that illustion that I'm an all-knowing adult.
In the first shot you can see that he's not the most serious student - he knows he cracks me up so he's clowning around for my amusement.

Magnetic Personality
Last night I did some Christmas shopping with Gabby. Our last stop was Target where we wanted to look for some stocking stuffers for David. In the men's underwear section there was a little girl who looked to be about 5 or 6. She became hypnotized by the wonderment that is Gabby. She literally could not take her eyes off her. Gabby and I were looking at each other out of the corners of our eyes and kind of laughing to ourselves while discussing the merits of 100% cotton boxers . . . it was cute and yet unnerving. We moved to another rack and the little girl stayed with us, staring without blinking. I'm serious, it was an intense stare for about 5 minutes. Gabby and I kept glancing at each other nervously - was this little girl from Children of the Damned? Would she explode our heads with her stare? Finally her mom must have realized she was missing and called her back. Whew, that was a close call.
Gabby is just at that age where she is naturally magnetic. When we went to Sonic the other day to get a drink, the napkin guy would not leave her alone. The first time he offers napkins and ketchup, it's nice. The second time, uh, we said, "no thanks." Finally, he just sort of threw himself at the car - I kid you not - he was sort of sprawling across the fender with his face nearing the windshield. This time he wasn't even offering napkins. He was just unable to control it, like a moth to the flame. I was laughing thinking how sad that he's flirting with a girl who's obviously setting right next to her mom. Nothing could be less cool. Or less akward. Like I said, people just can't help it - and I'm not being biased. I have proof.
