Rosie Reid - This Is Your Life!    

Rosie Reid was the first of our nine grandchildren.  This will be a compilation of memories as we watched her grow from the athletic baby you see in the first pics to the young lady she is today.  She never really lost the Tweetie Bird look that endears her to all who meet her.  This one is not only gorgeous.  Close to six feet tall, she excelled at such sports as volley ball and basketball throughout college while maintaining the straight A's her professors came to expect from her.

    What we are building here is a photo gallery of her life, from infancy to adulthood.  If anyone has any pictures to contribute they will be appreciated.

At about 13 months Rosie enjoyed her daily workouts.

She loved pumping iron.

 
Another sport she enjoyed was...

Track!

She had a great stride.

 
But when it was all over she was just our little Tweetie Bird.

 
She loved to pose for the camera...

 
...and the camera loved her.

 
She was young and innocent and loved her Grandpa.

A year later she was two and turning into a young woman.

Just itching to get out and spread her wings.

Even at two she was a scholar.

And an artist.

At 3 years old she was Little Miss Fix It.

And learning to drive.

From then on the years flew by.  By 5 years old...

She called Fort Bragg home.

And before you knew it she was  6.

Then...  7 Years Old and a  Lady

At 8 she went into banking with her brothers.

Then I turned around and she was going to college.

The good news is that she's still Grandpa's little Tweetie Bird.

Then I turned again...
