Well it's that time of year again all the Kids are getting ready for graduation. This year the realality has hit our family. Ann and Mike Douglas are proud to announce the Graduation of their Daughter Ashley Lauren Douglas Wow time has flashed before my eyes and it seems impossible for it to be my child walking up to get her diploma. With tears of pride and fear I'm sitting here letting the whole world know, (At least my world) my little girl is all grown up. It seems like yesterday my family went to a park, to something called a puppy match. We didn't know the first thing about showing dogs, but thought it sounded like fun. All Ashley wanted to do was play with all the dogs and run in that circle where all the dogs were lined up. Hmmm she was just too little then about 2 1/2 years old. I still have the picture of her trying to stand and stack a dog. We placed that day and the bug bit me, eventually it bit her too. When she got old enough and strong enough she got to go in that circle thing where all the dogs lined up. She started with puppy matches and evolving to her first 4 pt. win at the age of 13, she continues to love and show her favorite breed. She's very excited about our new babies and can't wait to show them. Ashley has been looking forward to her senior trip to Cancun (mom will hold her breath for a week) leaving a few days after her graduation. Gezzz she's never even been on a plane. I might have to pack myself in her suitcase. (Think I'd fit?) Well just wanted everyone to know our baby is on her way.
