Original caption

It’s wild looking back at all the different versions of yourself and realizing how much life happened between each one. Different hair, different dreams, different chapters… but somehow still the same girl underneath it all. If I could go back and tell that 7-year-old girl anything, I’d tell her to enjoy every little moment because somehow the years that seemed like they would last forever went by way too fast. ❤️ #AgeTrend #ThenAndNow #GrowingUp #Nostalgia #LifeInPictures
