I was going through an old photo and memory storage tub this week and rediscovered a scrapbook that my Dad (John W. Bain) had assembled. I knew that I had it, but I had not looked at it since his passing.

It was not neatly ordered . . . the clippings were as carefully cut out as he could manage . . . there is no rhyme or reason to the arrangement of the clips . . . but it was put together by her Papaw. He loved Charise (and Jonathan, too) and I'm sure that he would adore his great granddaughters.

Here are his memories of some of his baby's athletic exploits. He was very proud of her.
