Welcome back Billie, she hasn't been here since before the pandemic and to my delight, she simply picked up where she left off, being the sweet, trusting and affectionate little girl that she always was. I hope to show more than a profile of this gorgeous girl, I have plenty of pics of the back of her head so I'm grateful for a profile! πŸ˜…πŸ˜»πŸ’•πŸ’•
