Rachel officially hit the 5 foot mark this week. (That is only a few inches away from me, you know.)
This prompted me to finally dig through all the leaves of precious grade-school memorabilia until I finally found the tidbit of trivia I was looking for: compared to Sarah at the same age, Rachel is already 4 inches taller!!! That certainly explains why my little fourth grader has already out-grown clothes that Sarah wore in sixth grade.
What was Rachel's reaction to the big news?

Where did my girls get all that height? (Sarah is now 5' 7")
Obviously, they got it from me --- that's why I'm so short!
We just looked at last year's Christmas card of the girls and commented on how much Rachel had grown in a year!!
That is the most awesome photo of Rachel jumping up from the pile of leaves. Awesome! Here's to a few more inches!
Well,
At least the other sister is making them on the short side. We know you have a tall mail man (Steve????.....)
