Oh, Liz, I can't believe you made me do that!
Ugh...
Ok, me at 7:
Tha little star on the school uniform - an affiliation with a junior political organization "Oktyabryata"
Forty years later (yesterday, 4th of July celebration):
Yeah... The only things in common then and now - messy hair and clothes. :D

Are you kidding me?? This is adorable!! You also have the following in common with your 7-year-old self:
Cutest grin on earth
dimpled chin to die for
mischievous eyes (though, I think your 7 yr old self looks a tad bit more "up to something"!)
I love it.
ps- Happy Birthday!
Thank you, Liz! I feel a little less ravaged by time.
At 7, I was up to something all the time, that is true.
It is now my birthday (it is in April). I was a little drunk yesterday before the fireworks. Barely survived today's practice.
Oh! You're as cute as a button - in both photos. And in both, you have the same twinkle in your eye! Seeing these was a treat. Thank you for sharing them! :-)
Thank you, Kai! You guys are too kind. :)
alfia, you are absolutely adorable! and you look EXACTLY the same. i always tell you you have such a beautiful open happy face that you look much younger than you are :)
it was so nice to practice next to you today! i have been missing you!
Hi, Tova:
You are a darling! Nothing can compare to your beauty, of course, but I am grateful. You always make me feel better!
It was nice practicing together. I think it is time for me to move to your corner again. ;)
i totally agree with tova - you look the same! what a cute girl... and a beautiful woman! now i'll post some old photos...
yay for pictures of baby Rayna and yay for Alfia back in the same corner of the room with me!!!!
Thanks, Rayna!
I love your pics! Any chance we can expect Aliya to participate?
SO ADORABLE! Oh my GOSH but your seven year old self was cute--and it's amazing how much you haven't changed! Ditto Liz: cutest grin on earth, killer dimples, and up-to-something eyes. I really love both of these photos. I'm going to have to find a scanner and do one of my own... these are too much fun.
Thank you, JS!
Can't wait to see your pictures!
:)
A young Joy Suzanne? I'M DYING TO SEE YOU!!
where were you this morning??? you were NOT next to me!
Tova, you are going to laugh at me uncontrollably. Just yesterday I was talking to Sarah and marveling at the good place I was in body-wise. Then yesterday I hit my left thumb against the doorway (stupid cat was on my way), but did not pay attention. This morning, however, I woke up on time for practice, only to discover my thumb joint painful as hell. Had to ice it for the rest of the morning. Good thing it was not the right one, which I use a lot at work for pipetting. I am soooo mad at myself! Now I am wearing a sports bra to work, because I did not want to wake up my husband to fasten a normal one. Ugh! It hurts even to swing arms up, let alone do a downdog or (God forbid) chaturanga. :(
take some ibuprofen!!! i am totally not laughing, i am sad :(
in the words of tova: OH NOES!!! i am so sad about your thumb. indeed, this is sad news. :-(
i am glad that you are feeling good physically otherwise, though. (btw, a commented how great you look!)
i will see if he'll participate... (^_^) in the meantime, yes! some ibuprofen and much thumb rest for you!
hi Alfia
oh! sooo cute!!! then and now.
hugs
Arturo
I really think you look beautiful--in both photos. I love the depth and peacefulness of your eyes.
