My Oldest Baby Turning Into a Teenager Looks Like

Well, thanks to the lovely weather we have had this post is not going to be what I intended to be. We have had SO much rain that I have not been able to get outside to take photographs of my daughter who just turned 13!!!!! Thirteen??? Did I just say 13??? I am not sure how it is possible but it is the reality. My baby is now 13...YIKES!

She is a beautiful young lady and I am so proud of her. She has a heart of gold, she loves school, she is spunky, full of life, athletic, and makes the room brighter every time she walks in. You never quite know what she is going to say next. She definitely is starting to find who she is. And I love her with all my heart and am so very proud of who she is.

Though it has seemed as it has happened in the blink of an eye, I am very blessed. Kids are supposed to grow up. Kids are supposed to learn new things. Kids are supposed to succeed. And fail. Learn what it is like to fall. But also to get back up again and try harder. Kids will learn who they are and who they are not. I have wiped many a tear so far but have also seem many smiles and screams of joy. They will learn about life and love and heartache. They will learn about death and dying and moving on. And through it all their life will unfold and they will become who they are intended to be. And I would not have it any other way...................

She loves her sister.....see:)

And yes she loves her phone (but not as much as her sister??)

 There is that spunk I was talking about

Helping on her sister's field trip.......well, taking a break right now:)

Turning into a very beautiful young lady. And let me tell you
her sister is CRAZY about her. 

Growing up.......

Doing what she loves

This is What Having a Month All About YOU Looks Like!!!!

Well April sure ended up being all about my  youngest daughter!! From her birthday, to First Communion, to the Father Daughter Dance for Brownies, she sure had a busy end of April!!!

As fas as this post goes the pictures really do most of the talking. There is not much for me to say except that I sure do love this kid. She just turned EIGHT at the end of April. As bittersweet as it is to see her grow up I wouldn't have it any other way. That is the way it is supposed to happen. Kids are supposed to grow up and do great things and become all that they can be.

She has sure had an end of the month all about her! April 21st was Communion. April 23rd was her EIGHTH Birthday and April 26th was a Father Daughter Dance for Brownies. Then later in the week we took her birthday pictures at the park.....

All I can say is I sure do love her! She brings warmth and sunshine to any room that she enters. She has a heart of gold. She is loving, cheerful, funny and cares so much about everyone else. She is an amazing little lady who will go far. I have no doubt!!! I LOVE HER:) Enough said......

FIRST COMMUNION DAY!

AFTER COMMUNION:) ALL SMILES!

SISTERS

SWEETNESS
