Prom pomp and Circumstances

Grandma was there for final alterations and to give advice on everything. We did meet Mariah and eat a nice meal before prom. Quite the blessing. 

Miss Beth Garza and Liberty- aka Betherty.

Not that either of us cried while holding her up and dancing.... 

Liberty and part of her class. 

On our way to prom and I admit to being a bit excited.  Getting Libby dressed  was interesting. The dress alterations and booby coverage were complete.  Libby even has on makeup.  Have to say she is a beautiful child- young lady. 

Irony is that the theme was "Once Upon a Time". 

Chair dancing!  She wasn't happy unless she was being helped and held up!

Two of our beautiful peeps who wanted to dance with Libby.  "Shorty get low, low, low..."

Notice Rachael getting a real workout holding the dancing queen up! 

I asked our Floral Design teacher to make a corsage and boutonnière for Libby and Rachael. Here, we are slow dancing. I am crying.

Prom and our circumstance. Very different from our dreams.  But grateful to have her here. 

Our lives are upside down and backwards, but we are blessed.

The final picture is of Libby and I dancing to this song.    That's us.  "You're crazy and I'm out of my mind..."   

Thank you Rachael for holding us up. 

Thank you God for the chance to dance with this child at her prom.
