Despite what happened with her dad, I know that she has brought me immense pride and joy since she came into my life.

I had spent the last few weeks trawling old albums and finding photographs and scanning them to showcase how much she has grown, but sigh..... my hard disk crashed and I'm left with these. But in their small way, it shows my little princess as she smiled her way into the hearts of everyone who knows her.

Chels in K1, she would have been about 4 plus in this pic

She just brings so much joy and hope to me with her smiles

Flamenco dance costume for her K2 graduation, Still remember how proud I was when she was chosen to make the thank you speech for the whole graduating class. And she nailed the whole speech without forgetting a single word.

First day of school at P1. She was so nervous that day, and now she is a pro at school.

Her 7th birthday.

Her 8th Birthday.

I hope to take some more pics of her 8th birthday celebration on Friday and load them up soon.
