Or maybe she’s not blushing–she’s the youngest in the family so attention is an old friend. This is how she used to smile for the camera:. We called her Katiebug. Our favorite game was chasing each other around my bed. We called it, appropriately, Chase Around the Bed. Can you not tell our personalities from this picture? We’ve stacked a lot o...
