junior prom photos

i will resist the keen yen to feel deflated about how i look in the photos snapped with figgy, sis, h. and doggy.  quiet, quiet, i am still a work in progress, i will tell that voice. notice those photos are absent here. 

montclair high school junior prom last night--live strong, as they like to say at frost valley ymca camp.

young ones, go forth, prosper, be happy and healthy, laugh, see and follow your dreams and live strong. believe in yourself. life is larger, much larger, than a dress and hair, though i see [refer to first paragraph] how those things don't quite stop mattering, either.

p.s. i am on fig's mac to load these photos and the cap key won't work.

fig and sis, her godmother.

fig and olivia, her dear friend since middle school. h. joked
as we took this photo that he had to bribe fig to talk
to olivia in sixth grade. it was a new school for
fig and she didn't know anyone.

the friends again.

with caroline. these two love taking walks.

back view [and h.].

with friends, above and below.

  1. They all look so beautiful (and young). And Figgy does look happy. Thanks for sharing. Love, Lin P.S. Did Fig's dress come from the shop where she works? It is really pretty.
