Kelly's 13th Birthday

August 1, 2004

Kelly's birthday, really July 24, (the same birthday as her father) was celebrated on Sunday, August 1, 2004. Kelly became 13 years old. No! It is not a perm! Kelly's hair is naturally curly!

Opening the presents...$20 bill peeking out there!

Just 3 years ago, on her 10th birthday, Kelly looked like this. How she changed! Click on the thumbnail to open a larger view. The other thumbnail, in the Gaspee Days Parade...water girl!

November 12, 2006, and Kelly is now 15 years old. The music in the background is a song she wrote and recorded (harmonizing with herself) and playing both the guitar and keyboard to accompany herself. The song was a culmination activity after having read "Robinson Crusoe". The writing you can see through the picture is what her teacher wrote as a grade for her project...105 %!

The words to "Footprints in the Sand" by Kelly Johnson

One single footprint, one single life,

Without another, on whom can I rely?

Human society is overrated.

I can make it on my own.

Without companions to love forever,

Without a home made of bricks.

I can make it I assure you.

One single footprint, one single life,

Without another, on whom can I rely?

On myself.
