13 and Counting....

There is a teenager at my house now.

I don't know how this happened.
(Darling Gandalf plushie from Heather.)

13 years old! I'm still stuck at 16. My Mom is 30.
Someone pressed the fast forward button.

My sweet Amanda. You will always be my Mandy Moo.
She had her first massage today. A whole hour.
She loved it.
I'm still too scared to "share" myself with a stranger.

Then, she had a manicure done. Deep purple and blue.
It looks amazing on her.
Think blue would work for me? My toes need some
excitement.

Mandy and Katie had pedicures together.:)

My precious sweetheart. You are growing too fast. You are kind, loving, and caring. You make me laugh like no one else can! I love that you enjoy a good book and a great movie. Nothing scares you. You are always up for an adventure.
You rock, even when you ask me to call you Yuki.:)
Happiest birthday to you.

  3. Loved seeing the pictures of Amanda enjoying her birthday. The spa day looked so much fun. Deep purple and blue is an excellent choice of colors. Her nails must look great. Love the Gandalf plushie too.
