Father and Daughter

~Father and Daughter~

While looking through several photo's with my cousin Ansley, and my mother, we came across this picture that I think all of us would agree is our favorite.

This is my Great Grandfather, Timothy John Carey (Husband to Nelly) with his only daughter 

Acelia Theresa Carey.

You want to know some neat facts about our family?  

My Great Grandmother and Grandfather had 4 boys and only one girl.

I had 3 boys and only one girl.

They named their only girl Acelia Theresa Carey.

We named our only girl Acelia Carey Harding.

My Great Grandmother was a stay at home wife and mother.

Her daughter was a stay at home wife and mother.

I am a stay at home wife and mother.

The apple doesn't fall far from the tree!

(From Nelly's Book of Quotes and Poems)

A world of love may be expressed

In just a very simple way.

And so dear daughter from the heart,

I wish you worlds of love today.
